Booster Soaking Can

Hey all. I am trying to locate an MG42 cleaning accessory - the Booster Soaking Can. Anybody have one they'd be will to let go? Or have a line on one somewhere? I am also looking for a MG42 AA Spider Sight. This doesn't have to be original - a good repro would be fine as long as it will fit the moun...

Re: Good paint stripper..

I just finished doing the same thing - fixing up a Yugo-painted German MG42 stock. Yeah - the paint stripper you can find at HD or LOWE'S will work perfectly. These stocks were treated with cosmoline before they were painted black. Yep, they painted right over the cosmoline. So, the stripper will re...

Re: Barrel prices

Wow - yes, excellent information. Thanks for adding to this discussion. The commercial vs mil. spec issue is certainly a very important aspect to consider. Do you know of an American manufacturer that is capable of manufacturing hammer forged, chrome lined barrels? Wouldn't that be a step in the rig...

Re: Barrel prices

42Rock, do you know where the new barrels were coming from (who was making them?)? If the current $110 barrels are what they used to sell for $50 ... well, that's kinda f'd up. I'd rather spend the money on a legit brand new barrel...I couldn't care less when/where it was made, ya know? I'd also be ...

Re: SCHLAGBOLZEN SPANNER TOOL

How big are they? A photo showing one next to a ruler or a common object - like a BIC lighter or a playing card - might help a bit. Looks like one of those 'neat-o' things to have run across.... Hey, what are those? I dunno. I found 'em. They are some kind of Nat-zee tools. See the marks stamped in ...

Re: 8MM AMMO

I read the first few words of your post and gave up.

You might get the info you are looking for if you type normally and use correct punctuation and grammar.

Re: Barrel prices

About the prices ... fwiw ... about one year ago I bought 4 8mm Yugo barrels from APEX. Back then they were offering two different grades. One grade was $50 each, the other was $100 each. I bought two of each grade. There was a CLEAR difference between the four barrels. The more expensive barrels we...

Re: Board Hacked, Update

The charcoal option works.

Typing this message was tough though. The cursor was nearly ivisible and the font color was just a darker grey. How do we change the cursor and font color while typing a message? :?

Re: Probably Illegal MG-34 Receiver on Gunbroker

My English brother in law is amazed at the rights that Americans have when it comes to gun ownership here. See what socialism has done to their minds?

Re: Probably Illegal MG-34 Receiver on Gunbroker

Anybody ever consider this approach? ...

Contact the seller & offer to buy the receiver if he uses a band saw to cut it into three pieces?

That'd work, right?
