Thanks for the suggestion about ebay. As usual, I didn't have the patience to wait, so I got a repro from Don Shlickman. It really steadies the rifle when firing prone. I will keep looking for an orig ...

Really nice models. The Rufe had to be the baddest of float planes because it was a Zero Sen fighter with floats. They used it for air cover over Attu and Kiska. I'm not familiar with the Sairen, but ...

Trey, I was away for a month after the rifle went on CT and was surprised it was still for sale. 'What's wrong with it?', was my reaction, and when I couldn't see anything bad, I took the plunge. Mone ...

Thanks for the information Trey! I asked because I bought the rifle and bayo that came up for sale on this forum at the end of March, and I was a little concerned it might have been refinished because ...

Trey, Were there light and dark colored stocks for the Kokura series 24 and 25? I have seen both blondish and deep red colored ones for sale that don't seem to be sanded or messed with. The b&w ph ...

Hi Trey,
I have Fred's book, but can't find what the S stamp on the left side of early T-38 receivers means. An auction site said it was Chinese, but I don't think so. ...

Trey, I bought a beautiful Type I from a guy who contacted me through your board last summer. I reported the rifle's # to the Carcano forum, but never heard back from them. Do you give the info to the ...

So that's where all the T44's are! Great pics of the AL show too. I asked the museum here if I could clean the dirty dark T44 they have, but they say the huge plexiglass case it's in is too heavy to l ...

I forgot to say that my T99 short now has one of Don Schlickman's monopods and it is a perfect fit. The pod touchs the marks behind the nosecap that were made by the original.....Jim

Hi Trey, what is the best way of taking off a sloppy varnishing job? I know I've read about different ways of doing it with fine brass wool, but can't remember if you use WD40 with it or what. BTW, I ...

Trey, thanks for the GB page, I missed half of the postings. Is it just my imagination or does the 99 show up with more dings than the 38 or 44? It seems like the wood is less dense and the softer Jud ...
