    Can someone tell me what kind of ammo box I have?

    I'm not sure if this is the right place for this. But my dad got this box from my uncle and all I really know about it is it says it's a 20MM ammo box, but I have no idea how old it is. Any kind of information on its age and what it's ammo would've been used for would be awesome.

    Arisaka Guard Screw Distance?

    Do the type 30 and 38 have the same guard screw spacing? And are the receiver rings the same diameter? Do the type 30 and 38 both use the separate recoil lug as well?

    Boys I lucked out

    Local shop near me had these for sale. 7.5 French was 34 bucks a box and the 8mm Mauser was 36. Cost about 180 total. Living in Cali, this isn’t too bad. They even have 303 Brit, 6.5 Grendel, 54r, etc. Honestly still shocked…

    PPK mag-drop fix tutorial

    I love my WW2 era PPK and its handling but it had the dreaded mag drop disease and the mag would pop out every other shot.

    I managed to fix it and thought sharing a tutorial on a quick, cheap and easy fix might help others.

    Not a milsurp because it's not even a real gun, but it's as close as I'll ever be able to afford

    Behold my wooden M1928 Thompson SMG with 20 round magazine that I made back in high school as part of a Halloween costume (I was a British soldier in North Africa circa 1942, which was so I could reuse gear from my British Soldier in Kenya, July of 1916 costume..... yes, I'm weird, no I didn't try to do the accent). It is made full scale using original plans, although obviously I didn't replicate a lot of the finer details, and I wasn't able to fit quite the right number of cooling fins on the barrel. It's fairly simple and a bit crude in spots, but I was pretty happy with it as a prop for a one-off Halloween costume.

    There are no moving parts, but I have considered cutting the magazine out and putting a magnet in it and the receiver so I can do mag changes.

    Ah yes, the time traveling Walther P38.

    Had to do a double take on this listing. Either that or somebody got their DeLorean up to 88 miles per hour.
