As you can tell from my Profile, I'm a Navy Reservist. It occurred that looking at shooting an LN 1903 from the standpoint of Operational Risk Management may be enlightening. These are the five basic...

The ebony foreend is really postwar; I doubt your rifle was made by a celebrity maker as by that point the custom makers were more doing 1903 and Mauser based custom sporters. AFAIK the era of the...

5mad, did you get my email a couple weeks back?

The Marines (AFAIK) didn't have any 03s fail at Guadalcanal, that's true enough. The MD that wrote this study, though, says 2-3 should have failed in a population of 100% LN 03s.

Nice NRA rifles.

Point of information: M1 Ball is not ball ammunition for M1 rifles. M1 Ball was adopted in the mid 1920s primarily to give medium and heavy 30 caliber MGs better range and...

As to National Ordinance receivers, my now-retired gunsmith here in East TN quit working on National Ordinance M1903s in the early 1970s. They were soft and invariably developed headspace issues due...

Firstly, in Springfield Armory's testing conducted postwar between 1893 Spanish Mausers and Krags, no significant difference was found in sustained rate of fire.

Second, the .30 Krag is a...

Read the entire thread, and have a couple thoughts.

The biggest issue with LN 1903s is what happens when (not if) you have a case failure and 50K PSI gas gets about in the action. The double heat...

That's what we call a School Gun.

Those are all almost identical to that gun. Stokes Kirk and Bannerman made a...

While made of better steel than US Krags were, the NK is slightly weaker than a Swedish Mauser. I have seen data at Gunboards indicating spec on 6.5x55 NK is @40-45K PSI; Norwegian members have...

Okay, I want one. But it will have to wait until I get paid again. .

That's not a "mobile version". That's just the desktop version downsized to fir a smartphone screen.

Is the mobile version of vbulletin. I can't...

I don't even see anywhere to select a mobile version. Used plenty of ipbhost (vbulletin, too) forums, and either there will be a drop down or it will detect I'm on a phone.

Any word on why I can't see the mobile version of the site? Or any decision on making the site compatible with Tapatalk?

Stock is SPF.

You have PM regarding the C stock.

Yes, it is. I am going to get the SRS letter, and request data on a Krag I have had for decades.

Would DCM have advertised this in the Rifleman? UT Knoxville has a pretty complete collection of back issues.

Like my Papaw would have said, the mud's getting clearer. It occurred to me that even during the Depression that 4 years was a while for a barrel to sit around, and a 1 for 1 replacement for a LN 03...

081439 REPLACEMENT FOR 598xxx

I am advised this is a "Special Target Rifle", an NM 1903 that served as an NM Rifle, but sold off afterwards. So, one other VERY plausible story thus far is this was...

I'm on a Samsung Galaxy Avant. And it still looks identical to the desktop version.

I have more, but it won't let me attach more than 5 pics per post.

I use a Droid.

When I access the site through my phone it looks exactly like the desktop site. If you all have a mobile version, it's not working for me.

Any chance of Jouster becoming compatible with Tapatalk? I can't find this mobile version you speak of.
