what shit do you guys use to maintain your milsurp?

is hoppes/Remington shit good?

and what kind of oil/grease should I use for lubricating the bolt/lugs of a m1903A3? I won one a few weeks ago and noticed that though everything is smooth it seems very dry or maybe that's just the finish.

Well surpaholics. I finally got it seperated.

I'm 99.99% positive everything is original to this rifle. Minus the missing screws.

Tons of grease on the inside. Kinda makes me curious why it was pre-greased to hell before issue. Certainly helps the aftermarket condition though.

Basically the exact opposite of that. Lubriplate grease (anti-microbial and non-toxic) for any friction surfaces. Tool oil for any other surface that you want to prevent rust on.
>>
>>33439851
Not even close. Shit cooled off before it even hit the metal.


I said fuck it and used an impact drill on the lowest speed with a nice fitting bit. The head was already goobered, but it worked surprising well with really no damage to the screw. I'm replacing it anyway since the threads were basically pure rust, but it was a nice trick.
>>
>>33438709
I use Hornady one shot for any non'wear surfaces.

Moly grease for any metal on metal contact

I only use hoppes oil or clop for the bore since the fist shot is going to ruin all the cleaning work anyway.

In seriousness, early powders burned a lot slower, right? So they needed more barrel to accelerate the bullet to a proper rifle speed. Couple that with the ancient firearm tradition of making the stock really long and placing the receiver really far from the stock that didn't really go away until WWI or later, and you get these monstrosities.

A variety of reasons. Line shooting, people not knowing you don't need a 30in barrel to achieve maximum velocity, bayonet drills, existing tooling from old black powder rifles, unrealistic marksmanship expectations, and probably a bunch of stuff I can't remember.

Checking my tang was the first thing I did after getting ahold of some good screwdrivers.

No date, but lots of nice brass shims tacked into the stock...barrel is even free floated from the receiver all the way to the end of the stock. I haven't shot mine yet, but I have a feeling it's gonna blow my mind.

Get over it. Unless it's a museum piece, it's just a cheap used bolt gun.
I am going to buy a rebarreld k98 in a new "historical" stock and there is nothing you can do to stop me. Ivans mixed and matched capture with rusty, shot out bore isnt worth losing sleep over. At least the action lives on instead of going on a trash heap.
Pulling apart a 1a condition matching numbers rifle is a different story.

It doesn't look unrecoverable, and with the bore likely being chrome lined it should be fine.

So my grandpa gave me this Yugo Mauser as a gift since all my other cousins and siblings are liberal pansies. It shoots great and seems to be in good condition (all the bluing is all intact, bore has great rifling and no pitting/rust, etc). The only thing he changed was adding that scope on the rear sight mount. Should I leave it as is, or should I swap it back to the original sights? He claims the original sights were a bitch to use, which is why he changed them out.

I think the sights are fairly easy to use, especially with the front hood. The only problem is that they're 200 meter zero.
>>
>>33445537

That might cause a problem then. My local range has a maximum of 100 yards (shitty, I know), so that would make aiming rather difficult. I guess I'll stick to the scope for now, although I would prefer the look of the original sights. It's too bad that it doesn't have an elevation adjustment like an SKS or so on.

>It's too bad that it doesn't have an elevation adjustment like an SKS or so on.
It does, but the elevations start at 200m. This doesn't mean you can't shoot at things closer than that however. FWIW, my Yugo M24/47 shoots a bit low at 100 yards using Yugo M49 ball ammo; I assume because at that distance the bullet is still rising in its arc and hasn't intersected the sight axis yet. It will be different for whatever load you feed through it.
>>
>>33445731

I meant the front sight adjustment for elevation. In the case of the SKS, you can freely change its zero to whatever you need by setting the rear to 100 meters and then moving the front sight up/down as needed.

I guess I'll give the original rear sight a try some time though. It might be annoying though, since I'll have to zero the scope again should I choose to put it back on.

Anybody shot a BM-59, specifically the ones they're selling on classicfirearms? I think they look fucking cool and are a pretty neat piece of milsurp, I was probably going to order one this weekend except that they apparently ran out. Is there any good reason to not get one? Think they're going to bump the price if/when they come back in stock? $1300 seems a bit steep, but then again I have nothing to compare to because they never show up on gunbroker.

This is a wartime bayonet, of the pattern now referred to as EB9 by collectors. These were actually made early in the war as production of the SG.98/05 could not be as rapidly accelerated. It goes well with my rifle, which as the highest serial number known for 1914 was probably made after hostilities commenced.

If its a WW2 rifle then that's a good price. If it's a post war refurb, which is very likely, then it's at the upper end of current prices, and you can find one cheaper. Easiest way to tell if it's WW2 correct or not is to look at the front sight. If it has a hood, it's a refurb. If it has sight wings, like pic related, then it's WW2 correct.

That's really hard to give an average on for both of them. Your typical Type 99 without all the do dads are like $200-$300. Your typical cut down carbine M95 in 8x56 is what? $200? But other types or ones in their original caliber are worth a lot more.

More information needed. Theres a few rifles from 1895.

I assume you mean a styre, but the price varies between long rifle and short and weather its Budapest or x50r.

The average refurbed with electropenciled bolt is 150-250.


A t99 can vary wildly by maker. They're usually around 300 with more added for matching bolt and mum

After a second look, it's definitely refinished, though it was refinished very well. Visible parts all looked to match too, but now I'm having second thoughts.
I'd prefer to get a cheap-ish one as a shooter and then some more collectible ones in the future, but with what you're saying about the price I feel like it'd be overpaying at a thousand bucks.
That being said, I haven't had any luck finding much that were cheaper, and all the ones near that price were in .30 and I'd vastly prefer 9.
I dunno man.

he may of thought it was an italian vetterli 1870/87/15 which were converted in 1915 to fire 6.5x52 carcano. shooting a smokeless center fire thorough a rifle intended for BP with 1870's metallurgy is pretty sketchy. The bore on mine is .004 smaller then military 6.5x52 aswell.

These are mostly useful to felons who haven't gotten their rights restored. They can use these as hunting weapons.

If they were $149 I'd buy one to fiddle with, but J&G has a bad habit of overselling their shit. Their fair is a typical dealer's bottom of the river shit.

Saw one at a gun show couple years back, my heart jumped with I saw the stripper clip guide. Price tag said $500, guy must have noticed my excitement cause before I can ask he tells me it's been rechambered for 30-40 krag. Looking back that was probably still a good price, but I was so let down I just sulked off
>>
>>33460773

Yes, would have been a good price. You could have converted it back.

I passed on a part lot of one of these a few years ago on GB. Think the receiver and some misc parts went for $150 or so. Would have still cost a good bit to get going but would have liked having one.

Spanish Model 1893; your rifle is mostly the same.

Actually the slider is different; notice it's a different shape and the button is on the opposite side. This is one way to tell Spanish-made Model 1893s from German or Belgian-made M1893s

The only one on Gunbroker right now is listed at $8.5k, though to be fair it has been completely refinished (not sure how I feel about that).

$250. It's got a repair at the top of the wrist that has come loose and needs to be re-set but otherwise it's in nice shape. I need to get around to fixing that so I can shoot some of that '30s-vintage FN 7x57mm I picked up.

Then it's not going to command the same price. Mine is the cheapest one I've ever seen. And trust me, I've been hunting them for years.

Wasn't that guy, I've been looking for years as well and pretty much given up on it since I'll never be able justify the price to myself. I want the full military handguards, but may end up settling for a cheaper 30-06, least that way I can still shoot it

On metal, patina is a coating of various chemical compounds such as oxides, carbonates, sulfides, or sulfates formed on the surface during exposure to atmospheric elements (oxygen, rain, acid rain, carbon dioxide, sulfur-bearing compounds), a common example of which is rust which forms on iron or steel when exposed to oxygen. Patina also refers to accumulated changes in surface texture and colour that result from normal use of an object such as a coin or a piece of furniture over time.
