Re: 1897 full matching Dragoon and a mystery device

I'm curious if it has a second angled interior wall similar to the end furthest from the rifle? Could it have held mirrors for indirect aiming? Confused by the flag pole..

Re: Unknown SKS

It's Chinese, but a very early one that had a blade bayonet. The stock is a replacement. A photo of the bayonet groove and ferrule that the bayo sits in would show if it's for a blade or spike. Blade ferrule will have a V notch, while a spike ferrule will have a U notch.

Re: New gun laws.

My understanding is "Guedes v. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, No. 21-5045" upheld the bumps took ban last week.
The Senate passed a gun control bill a few weeks ago, but the house hasn't. Nothing signed into law.

Thank you. I've tried one from pretty much everything I owned and nothing! I was hoping I'd overlooked an option.

M91/59 Handguard

Does anyone know if an upper handguard from any other model will fit a 91/59 without alterations?

I'm in west palm beach for vacation and we're having a hard time finding anything to get home. Planning on leaving Friday morning, but maybe not.

Thanks for that. I was trying to find the answer here and didn't consider just googling it! That's what happens when I'm up past bedtime.

1925 Tula Question

I was looking at the rarity chart and noticed that 1925 Tulas are singled out as rarer than most other years in the era.

Re: Chinese SKS question

Ive never seen a date from the 70's. Only late 80' and early 90's. Id call bs to the 70's date being stamped.
