More photos from the match I shot in last week.  3 M1 carbines, 1 trapdoor Springfield, 1 U.S.military  version of the Krag-Jørgensen, and eight or ten M1 Garands could be seen on the firing line.

Sadlak steel mount and if it matters a tungsten finish.


Very nice.

 



And by the way, that 1911 is beautiful.

Winchester Red River Army Depot rebuild, fresh from the CMP North Store:







Those 1960s arsenal rebuilds are some of my favorite Garands. This one looks like it got reparked yesterday - the metal looks like new, and aside from storage dings, so does the stock.









Almost too nice to shoot, but I'm sure I'll take it out for a range session soon.

A couple of pics from today. 18.5" Norinco in a Vltor stock, with Vortex Sparc on a SA scout mount. It was pretty cloudy and dim so the flash makes the colors look a bit off.

M1 Garand Dec 1941 purchased from CMP in 1984.  Original finish on receiver,  11/43 barrel w/o chrome on gas port, TE= 2.8, MW= 1.2  Uncut op rod, all internals correct.  Fajen stock too nice to replace. Still looking for correct sight.

Which muzzle attachment is this?

So I have been lurking over here again, checking out the stock modifications.  After deciding on what I wanted on a sling setup, and discussing some modifications with a few members here, I purchased some parts and made some modifications.  






Here is my SOCOM 16 with a few Sling QD attachment points added.







These are the Uncle Mikes QD Sling attachment sets, which seem to work very well.  I measured the stock and the points I wanted to place them on, made sure there was no mechanical interference, and drilled out the holes with at 3/8 drill bit.  The mounts are 1/2 inch, but I wanted a snug fit, so I drilled them out small, and then sanded down the opening to exactly the right size.  These mounts have an opening in the rear that allows for a flat head screw to go nicely through.  I then went to the hardware store, and purchased some machine screws, nuts, and a screw connector.  Since I am left handed, I wanted to make sling points on both sides of the weapon, so it can be used ambidextrously.  







The mounts at both locations are connected internally, which provides for added strength.  The screws were bolted to the QD mounts, then attach inside to the screw connector, so it is one solid unit all the way through.  I then used adhesive and coated all the internal locations, and bolted all of it together.  Thanks to Heavily_Armed for the great information and photos of his project.  (Back a few pages)







My next plan is to mount an AFG to the underside of the stock.  So a 1913 rail will go on the bottom of the stock, and I think that will be all the mods done to this stock.

Haha I'm pretty stoked about it! They had three all with $39.95 stickers on them an all three were near black they were so oily and grimy but I spied the stripes on this one thru the crud and I guess I was inspecting them for too long so he said $30 OTD trying to make a sell but I was already sold

I just put some elbow grease into it with a denatured alcohol soaked rag.




Some little critter had even made the stock it's home
