This is pure speculation, based on my experience in manufacturing.
If it were me setting up production, I would have used round nuts with external grooves to resist turning in the wood grips. I woul ... |

I have not used the 6.5x51r brass. I have used the Prvi .303 Savage and 8x50R Lebel brass. So far, it has been fine. But I do not have any cases that have been loaded more than twice, so there is n ... |

Wow, that's actually rougher than mine! Do you remember what it brought at auction?

This one has typical Machurian Model 13 features (long tang, rounded pistol grip, stacking hook, Mauser bayonet lug under barrel, etc). The bolt handle has an Arisaka look to it. The chamber casting ... |
