Centrifugal Arms

I’m with StrangeRanger and based on the size of the head on those bolts he not only threaded the holes but likely enlarged them to do it. This person has no business working on MGs and I’m really sorry that happened to your gun.

I spoke with the owner last night, the unredacted F4 doesn't show any restrictions. The gun in question was purchased with two other Thompsons all of which are supposedly transferable. While I have little doubt the other two are, this one I'm much less confident about. That concern is further validated by the fact that the previous owner was an ex FFL/SOT so it definitely leaves to door open to the pre sample possibility. From the sounds of it, they have a copy of the previous transfer form for this gun, he was going to dig that up and start by taking a closer look at it (didn't recall if it was F3 or F4). I'll be in their neighborhood next Monday, happy to swing in and have a closer look at what's he's found by then, will PM you my contact info.

Unlikely to be transferable and definitely not transferable just because he received it on a F4. Coincidentally, I'm in Reno and also know these guys pretty well. If you are interested in this gun I can run down there and have a look at the gun and paperwork.

I just received 388, bought off eBay.

I have a Savage M1 sand cutter bolt, it has the typical S on the back and a P on the left side with an indistinguishable (to me anyway) mark above the P.

Happy new year!

Merry Christmas all and have a happy new year!

Congratulations, they look fantastic together!
