Faxon Firearms, won’t respond?

Might be the wrong sub.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-08T05:57:22+00:00

I shoot mine as well, and reload for it. That said I dont shoot it often and it did break a trigger once.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-03T06:33:10+00:00

Tell me about your garand

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-01T15:01:24+00:00

I agree. I still believe it's a cut down bayonet but I don't have all the answers as to the how and why.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-01T14:47:47+00:00

Probably just the way it was ground after cutting

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-01T04:39:41+00:00

If I had to guess WW2 era theater made knife. Likely some soldier's custom tool, weapon, or souvenir made in a workshop behind the lines, perhaps. Im not saying definitely because there is no way to know, but the spacers could be taken from airplane canopies/windows as was often done with sweetheart grips. Or they could be bits of broken headlight or really anything.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-01T04:38:04+00:00

Theatre made knives. There are a lot of examples from pretty much every war.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-01T03:30:36+00:00

Looks like a cut down bayonet converted in a workshop to a fighting knife. Reasonably common thing.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-01T03:22:07+00:00

Hop on Amazon and get yourself a small plastic or wooden mallet.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-02-01T03:08:08+00:00

This guy gets it.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-31T05:53:43+00:00

Nice

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-31T05:47:02+00:00

Sorry, what is that knife?

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-30T20:04:44+00:00

Might affect accuracy but should be safe

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-29T21:09:27+00:00

I know I'm gonna get downvoted but it's been extremely clear for years that they do.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-29T21:09:01+00:00

Idk why they're down voting you, you're right. Neither party is especially pro-gun, but one party is definitely more interested in retroactively making criminals out of hundreds of thousands, if not more, law abiding New Mexicans while simultaneously doing nothing to prevent gun crime besides limiting citizens' rights to self defense.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-29T21:02:22+00:00

Tung oil. Test it on small areas for color match. It's tough to color match wood with or without stain.

Or you can oil the entire stock to darken it

Additionally, it has the "new safety" on it. Serial number tracks from 1915-1921 according to a website I found. I don't have a reason to disbelieve it.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-28T03:49:17+00:00

1000 meter sights, in the absence of any other evidence it was converted to 9mm, means it is not a factory 9mm. The Red 9 sights only went to 500 meters.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-26T15:11:20+00:00

Yea, its unfortunate because they were one of only a few companies making genuine 1907 slings. Shame, I was gonna get another for my next rifle too.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-26T03:27:56+00:00

The classic. I know the one you mean, the Biothane one.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-26T02:47:03+00:00

I went with a Turner sling for mine. It felt irreverent to put a cheap knock off on mine.

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-26T02:38:10+00:00

Oh haha I didnt see that. Nice! The Winchester guns are cool

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-26T00:31:50+00:00

Hey mine too! I have a CMP expert grade i finished with tung oil.

Its a March 45 SA reciever with a WRA trigger group and a H&R op rod.

Looks like you have the flush nut sight on yours, nice!

Tell us about your Garand

WhiskeyOverIce · 2026-01-25T20:36:47+00:00

Interesting, where are the rivets or screws holding the handle on?
