nice looking Rifle!
Dead sexy pea shooter O!
Very nice sir. I sure do miss the woodless danes.
Now That came out great!!! Fine looking rifle.
I am currently also restoring a Feb 1944 SA, mine is a 2.58MM, waiting for it to get back from re-barrelling now, a -9 unmod curved side oprod on the way, and she should be ready to complete!
The one you did is very nice, hope mine turns out that well. I see you used a single slot lock screw, did you also do the short fork on this one? Looking at Duff's referance he only showed poppet valve and long fork follower rod IIRC. I want to make sure I do mine right as well, and I know this was a transition time frame for both parts, so maybe they are both correct approaches?
As you said its a transitional time period so either may be correct. I figured since it is a Feb rifle the single gas screw and short fork would have been more than likely used
Gottcha, I thought that was the era of transition. Great rifle Orlando!
Since we are on the subject, I dont recall seeing in Duff's book if he was stating the rifles he did data sheets on are origional for sure or not. I assume they are, but anyone know for sure?
