"I'll take it" ....... if .......

Someone had asked through a PM if the the baseplates were included with two of the stainless magazines. The two all stainless magazines do not have a separate plastic base plate like the others. The magazines are complete.

Gary, Great job the USPS is doing here. You should have had them 3 days ago.

SOLD to GT998 Thanks Gary, tracking number emailed to you.

I PM'd you 12 hours ago, did you get it?

I thought this video was informative. Same guy another video on the ATF and 80% lowers.

As pictured, slip on muzzle device. Flash suppressor? Muzzle brake? The vents do not go 360, no vent on the bottom. Not sure how to qualify it but with the full size opening I'd venture flash suppressor. Slip on and then pinned with a roll pin and an allen screw on the bottom. I had an older model stainless mini (180 series I think), used it on that, don't know about fitment on current models. $50 shipped priority mail CONUS. Location Delaware The first to post "I'll take it" establishes the buyer, PM after that. *********************************

All magazines are sold. As pictured, 11 magazines, 1911 45 ACP 6 are stamped with the Colt emblem and "Colt 45 AUTO M" 5 are stamped only with "COLT 45 AUTO" Lightly used if at all. $125.00 shipped priority mail CONUS. Location Delaware The first to post "I'll take it" establishes the buyer, PM after that.

I got the binoculars, in two days, and got the refund. But I don’t have any phone adapter. Is that shipped separately?

So, what does the phone adapter look like? And is it shipped separately?

Received the binoculars this morning, the Paypal reimbursement yesterday. Thanks for the the offer to try these out at a significantly reduced cost.

I gave it a shot. I submitted the info to the link provided in the mail.

I guess it is time to revisit this. I'm guessing the Feds or someone had a successful class action suit. As part of the "MyUSPS" service I get scanned images of incoming mail, and in today's batch I have a 'court authorized notice'. I'm sure it is one of those you are "a member of a group subject to a settlement" - 'which you will probably never see or be of any value to you'

To bad the search function wasn't accurate then. I did a lead ban search and it didn't show up.

I didn't even know he signed a ban the day before he left office. The ban has been overturned by the new Interior Secretary http://www.gunowners.org/secretary-zinke-repeals-ammo-ban.htm Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke signed a Secretarial Order on Thursday repealing the lead ammunition ban issued the day before Barack Obama left office. It is interesting to note that Thursday was Zinke’s first day as Interior Secretary and repealing the onerous ban one of his first actions.... [The lead ammunition ban has been described as Obama administration’s “parting shot” against the hunting community.] But Zinke overturned this ban with Secretarial Order 3346. S.O. 3346 “revokes Director’s Order 219.” Moreover, S.O. 3346 is effective immediately. This is the second Obama-era gun control to be repealed within a week. On February 28 President Trump signed the repeal of Obama’s Social Security gun ban. The White House explained that the Social Security gun ban was repealed on grounds that it “would prevent some Americans with disabilities from purchasing or possessing firearms” and “could endanger the Second Amendment rights of law abiding citizens.”

The stock was bedded at some point. Although this doesn't look that neat of a job, it looks very similar to National Match pictures in Summer 2013 issue of Garand Collectors (Vol 27 issue 3)

Couple more pics

Was up at Woods Hole in September. Beautiful area - in the summer .........

I've had the rifle for some time now, probably shoots better then I can. I don't recall what the muzzle and throat numbers were, but when I checked they were pretty good. Some of the stuff I got with the rifle. Bayonet too, but not original to the rifle.

PM'd you a pair of numbers for when you have time.

I have a low 6 digit Springfield M1 that sometime in the past the stock was varnished. Any recommendations on reliable overall service shops and stock refinishers? I would like to have the rifle inspected strip and the original stock back to the way it should be. I am also considering replacing the stock and keep the orignal just 'because'. My original stock also has some bedding compound on the inside. Don't know why or when that was done. Best I can tell the rifle may have gone through CMP at one time, it looks like a CMP cartouche on the stock.

Update on the incident, bail posted. https://www.firerescue1.com/firefighter-safety/articles/148468018-Pa-fire-capt-who-fatally-shot-junior-firefighter-posts-bail/?NewsletterID=148117063&utm_source=iContact&utm_medium=email&utm_content=TopNewsLeft2Title&utm_campaign=FR1Member&cub_id=usr_4v9RJLW07bK1PIkT

As responsible firearm owners I do believe it is also up to us to push the correct adage with incidents such as this. It was not an accident, it was a failure to follow the rules. My wife hears this from me every time it comes up on TV. As mentioned several times already, had the 21 year old followed any of the 4 rules, the 16 year old would be alive. Being a fire fighter, I have gotten numerous news feeds on this, several reported that he was hit in the face.
