full auto 45 Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 Can someone give me the exact length of the entire tool and the length of the cut for the pin end. Here is a photo of one of the tools. Thanks. http://mikesmachineguns.homestead.com/files/spring_tool.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1930sRust Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 I smell reproduction plans! You gonna stamp it "MM"';-)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
full auto 45 Posted June 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 Why Chris how dare you!! http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/wink.gif These are of course originals. It's original if I make it from something, right? I'm going to get with Gordon on this one and we'll flood the market!! Really I ask because I've seen several for sale lately and I want to know if they are original or close to being original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper28 Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Mike, Check with PK he made one for me using a steel pistol cleaning rod. Looks just like your picture. Didn't I show it to you at Knob Creek? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
full auto 45 Posted June 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 No I didn't see that one. Must have gotten side tracked after the show. Oh, Rust, I'll mark mine "MM" on one side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OAL 4.625 Shaft dia. 0.175 Tip length 0.512 (with very slight radius from tip shaft to main shaft, not a perfect 90) Tip dia. 0.070 Ring OD 1.1 (side to side) Ring OD 1.2 (top to bottom) Ring ID 0.755 (side to side) These dimensions were taken from a spring tool stamped KNM (Norwegian Navy) Good luck!

TSMG28 Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Mike, I made an error on the posted tip diameter. It should be 0.107, not 0.070. The 0.070 number just didn't sound correct when I posted earlier, so I rechecked it. Sorry for the confusion. Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
