  1. and yes, a savage gun would read Bridgeport, conn. and the gun in question, has the correct inspectors markings for a savage gun of this serial range....GEG and FJA = George e groll and Frank J Attwood. what I don't remember is, if we should see an ordnance wheel...i think we should. does this gun have the ordnance wheel?
  2. savage M1's and M1A1's have the "Full Auto" phrase on 2 lines...whereas, the Bridgeport guns have it on a single line. that's the quickest way to tell on the frame. on the receiver the quick way to tell is by the inspector...GHD inspected bridgport M1A1 factory guns, where as RLB then FJA inspected the M1/M1A1 savage guns. i'm not exactly sure when the inspector's changed over from RLB to FJA, my gun is 78,7xx and is FJA inspected. if I remember correctly all the M1's where made by savage. as the Bridgeport made guns had trouble passing the cycle rate test in the M1 timeframe...or at least, the inspector was pickier on cycle rate. by the time Bridgeport guns where passing inspection, the M1A1 alteration was in effect and the Bridgeport made guns where update with the A1 updates. this may make it sound like I know what i'm talking about...but in reality, I read this in Frank's book. hopefully I am remembering correctly.
  3. I assumed the buyer of this ammo would add it to their WW2 Thompson display....not shoot it. it's a heavy, old can of ww2 ammo, more of a collector item than anything else....but I wouldn't take it to the range.
  4. Hey guys, David gave me permission to sell a 600rd sealed canister of .45 M1911 Ball ammo. EC-5-44, I think read that EC means Chrysler?? $360 shipped. Thanks, Rob
  5. Hello, I have received David's permission to list a Bridgeport L Drum in very good condition with unmarked military. $500. I bought this from another board member a few years ago, but ended up with an M1, so no need for it. Buyer to pay actual shipping (we'll keep the shipping cost as low as possible) or local pickup in Phoenix, Az Thanks for reading, Rob
  6. I'm thankful he specified he was "selling to the serious collector, not the shooter." I'm almost dropped a mil for this thing!
  7. so buyers pay 15% which goes to the auction house...is that the only chunk the auction house takes? or do they take another 15% from the seller too...anybody know?
  8. Hi, my compensator broke at the stake ( or screw or whatever it was). Anyone know where I can find a replacement? Thanks, Rob
  9. Hello, sent private message. thanks, rob
  10. Hi guys, i'm new to this board. i bid on 1005. I bid low, as it was a non-matching gun....i was quite shocked to find out the hammer price was $21k (this doesn't even include the 15% buyers premium). it looked like a nice gun, but wow!
