Got guns?

The weight on the underside of the bbl is movable - very cool, I've never actually seen one in person before.
Will do, probably wait for warmer weather tho - chilly now.
Question: Does yours have a firing pin return spring? Mine does not and after some reading I see that most do not as they tended to break sometimes causing a "slam fire" when closing the trap door.

Love that m1 action. Still want a Garand to go with my m1a’s
Talking about slam fire.
My brothers were at the range without me. One of them somehow slam fired a Mosin Nagant. Both of them got shrapnel. Was pretty bad.

broke out a 1942 dated underwood .30 carbine
she shot very well, just not enough knock down power.

Got a hold of some cool Garand goodies today.
Several hundred period FMJ 30-06 rounds, 20 more clips & 300 .45 ACP rounds.
Time to have some fun & make some noise.

Yep, I know the procedure - thanks for the heads up though sir.
We trained with both in basic - during the transition from the M1 to the M16.

I once reloaded 600 rounds for my m1a’s
Talk about fingers. Jesus christ that is allot of work. Case prep sucks. I’ve probably reloaded a good 5000 rounds for them. Fuck that shit. No more but they were the best. All matchkings. I’ll just reload rifle rounds for my bolt actions and reload mainly for my handguns now.

Look at the walnut stocks on these guns, they are going up for auction this year.
Benelli Magnifico Set of Five Semi-Auto Shotguns
The set consists of five semiautomatic shotguns-two 12 gauge, two 20 gauge, and one 28 gauge- and it reflects the structure of a family: the 12 gauge represents the father, the 20 the mother, and the smallest gauge 28, the child.
Stock
Made with the very finest walnut, the sock is worked by hand, with an oil finish applied by master craftsmen of fine shotguns, who are also responsible for mounting the wood. The recoil pad is made in buffalo horn.
Receiver
The receiver is carved by hand in stainless steel with Inertia system, using the most prestigious model in the Benelli range - the Executive - as a base.
