7.62x51 dried up long ago. Maybe even before M2 but that is probably because we were supplied by CMP. If it were mine. I would float it out there at about .50 cents. If no takers, you can come down...
I think Ken suffers from a chemical imbalance due to the high concentrations of fish pee and moose poop in the Canadian water supply!
IHC without a doubt
I am about 14 years into my L4 - L5 overhaul. My outcome was as good as it gets. My therapy was to walk at least a mile a day. Wish I had it done 5 years sooner. I am now starting to have issues with...
That engine roar is the sound of freedom! I am darn glad that all most here have to complain about is jet noise. We could be in a hundred places in this world where the sound of a jet engine is...
Bruce, I have used both methods for tightening the gas cylinder. Both work well but I prefer the peening method. I used a piece of cold rolled steel. laid it in the spline and gave it a whack. Check...
While this forum is a fairly civil place now. Those of us who have been a member for a few years will remember a time when this place was "The Wild West" and that has happened more than once. People...

Back in the day, when converting Misurp. rifles was the norm and not the Capital Offence it is now days. BronzePoints were a good choice because they fed from the magazine without deforming the tip....
I have used 748 in a Garand but it was a long time ago and I did not retain the loading data as the accuracy wasn't as good as I thought it ought to be. We all know that rifles vary so my experience...
I believe that it is a sub-contractors mark.(although I haven't a clue who that might be.) Similar to the "F" marked safety in IHC garands. I could be wrong and probably am but that is what I think....
I'm guessing that most of us "old timers", that read and post to this board, especially those from the late 90s and 2000s, have been in contact with the "First Couple of CMP". Always helpful, alway...
