I sent my WH M1 Thompson to PK (for alot of repairs) & he told me that my bolt was alittle to long & was banging into the chamber. It was a WH M1A1 bolt. He repaired the chamber & I now have a Savage M1 bolt in the gun & it works GREAT! Thanks PK for what you did for my Thompson SMG years ago.

I bought a NIB Colt AR-15 model 613 (select fire) for $500.00 in 1977 from the Shotgun News. I thought that the $200.00 transfer tax was redicuous for a $500.00 gun! I sold the gun 5 years later.
I bought a 1964 1/2 mustang in 1980 for $750.00 & a hunting rife & a .22 pistol. I've had alot of people tell me that they had a mustang like that years ago. They all told me that it was the best car they ever had & wished that they had not sold it. I was thinking about that $500.00 gun I had sold when I decided I didn't want to be one of those people that wished that they still had there mustang. I still have that car today even thou I don't have that $500.00 gun. I did learn something about this & did not want to repeat my mistake on selling my car like I did with the gun.
I did redeem myself in 2003 thou & bought a NIB West Hurley Thompson smg for $6900.00. I sent it to PK & had him work his magic on it. FUN GUN!
My user name of "must" came from the 3 classic mustangs I own & drive (64 1/2 & 2-66 models). I've owned 2 of them for over 20 years. They also transport my Thompson up to the local gun range.
I own a later production WH FA M1 Thompson & it came with a WH bolt. PK told me that the bolt was too long & was ramming into the chamber. He repaired the chamber & a Savage M1 bolt is now in use with no problems.

Pk worked on my W.H. M1 last March 2003 & I haven't had any problems with it. I had "LOT" of problems before he went thru the gun & correct all the problems. It is in G.I. specs now & is well worth it!

I have two Vector NIB Uzis that are consectivetly serial numbered (if you want both of them). Price includes one 25 rd. new magazine. Does not include transfer tax & shipping. These are both fully transferable.
Looking to buy a U.S. Inland M1 carbine in really nice condition (non import). Also looking to buy a Sig P220 in .45acp. I would like it to be new or like new & would like the threaded barrel version.
Thanks, Brent
I have a C&R AR-18 in like new condition. It was made in Costa Mesa. It comes with a Armalite scope & 3 factory magazines (one-20 rd. & two-30 rds.). I would like $9000 or a M1A1 carbine (orignal or reproduction) + cash. I will consider all offers. Gun is on form 4. I should have pictures for it next week.

You ought to get the book: U.S. M1 Carbines, Wartime Production by Craig Riesch.
Any unmark magazines, made in U.S.A., or marked M2 I think are after market ones. Any mag. marked KI, AI, IA, Sey are definitely G.I. There is also a early version that is called a "seamless or hardback" magazine as well. There is one marked J that I think is late production G.I.
My M2 is fun to shoot but I like my Thompson better.
My 2 cents.
