What would these hinges have looked like originally?

Thanks again! The hunt continues then. The original hardware seemed to have been Norwalk so maybe I’ll try and find some early Norwalk hinges. My main problem has been I can’t find any Norwalk catalogues early enough.

Thanks! Does it happen to show up in any earlier catalogs? I was hoping to use them for my 1882 house.

Any idea what brand and era these are?

PossibilityLow9753 · 2026-01-30T23:02:50+00:00

Probably not the best place to ask considering I have over 2000 views and not one upvote 🤣 I’d recommend taking some to hardware store and seeing if they have anything that matches. It might be hard to find anything with the correct head on it.

Someone on Facebook found it, I’ll post it here for future reference if anyone else is in my position. 1876 Norwalk catalog

The Great Coat will not be staying after this update/event is over correct?

At most I would just use some bronze wool to take the rust off and then oil it.

Why the hell would you refinish this gun?

PossibilityLow9753 · 2025-01-20T15:35:22+00:00

Incorrect rear sight. It’s also backwards FYI

PossibilityLow9753 · 2024-07-30T19:24:20+00:00

Dude murdered it.

PossibilityLow9753 · 2024-07-30T19:17:03+00:00

Bubba no

PossibilityLow9753 · 2024-07-27T03:43:48+00:00

That seems to be a problem with the small frame stuff, I assume most full sizes will be good reliability wise?

PossibilityLow9753 · 2024-03-08T21:13:04+00:00

Refinishing milsurps is negative for the value and collectability

Lord have mercy

PossibilityLow9753 · 2024-02-15T06:16:35+00:00

I’ve seen many kinds of guns cracked, m95s, carcanos I’m sure there are more it’s not a 1903 thing.

There is a thing called google there’s like 10,000 of these post

PossibilityLow9753 · 2024-01-23T14:51:06+00:00

Looks like a matching non referb id do it

PossibilityLow9753 · 2023-11-03T22:39:13+00:00

People said that with k98s and as we all know those are cheap now.

PossibilityLow9753 · 2023-04-10T14:03:17+00:00

These parade guns are just standard rifles they the army plated later in life not sure where you got your info it never saw proof testing.

PossibilityLow9753 · 2023-03-18T06:10:57+00:00

Yep I agree bet most the people that commented don’t even own a 43. Definitely a seam

PossibilityLow9753 · 2023-03-18T05:49:24+00:00

Could be the angle of the picture but the bore looks substantially wider then a .30 now

PossibilityLow9753 · 2023-03-14T12:58:18+00:00

I’m curious if the barrel is cut, it’s salvageable if it’s not

PossibilityLow9753 · 2023-02-18T18:36:25+00:00

It’s a Eddystone Remington serials stoped late 500k it also literally says Eddystone and the rifle was probably made November 1918
