deerslayer Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Seems like a perfect day to bring an old warhorse back to life... They did a good job dewatting this one... Hard-face rod plug in the chamber and into the feed area.. and hard face rod welded the barrel to the receiver... I should have taken before pictures... But it's apart with only minor blemishes to the receiver. This one will be fun to put back together! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black River Militaria CII Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Yes, isn't that fun. Having done many, many reactivations, way too many Thompsons have had drill rod driven up into a hole through the chamber and deadended just over it. The external welds are nothing, really, but the damn drill rod is a PIA. FWIW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
