Desert Fox

Hopefully one of the members here snagged this one. It looks like SN 54 or 54X from what I can tell. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/790460300

I really hope someone can save the rest of Mr. Free's collection. It would be an absolute shame to have such beautiful and unique pieces destroyed.

Cool, that's the same stock. Thanks for the link, ducky.

Hi all, This buttstock came with an M1 parts kit I got recently, although I highly doubt it is original to the rest of the kit. Has anyone seen something like this before, or have any idea what it might mean? I can tell that the tag was once screwed to the underside of the stock, and later moved to the side where it is now. Thanks! http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g200/I-LUV-AR15s/DSCN2978.jpg http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g200/I-LUV-AR15s/DSCN2979.jpg http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g200/I-LUV-AR15s/DSCN2980.jpg http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g200/I-LUV-AR15s/DSCN2981.jpg

Where might one be able to purchase one of these kits?

How rare are original MP40 rubber muzzle caps, and what would one sell for? Thanks!

Norm, There has been a guy on Gunbroker from the Ukraine who is selling de-activated 1928A1 Thompsons. Maybe you can still see the listings here: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem....p?Item=28069284 http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem....p?Item=27884379 Wish I could get a couple of these! http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/wink.gif

I ordered an M1A1 parts kit from IMA a few weeks ago and received it today. It's in average condition with the finish on the parts nearly gone, except for the bolt, which is in pretty good condition. The bore is in good condition also. The wood has very little dings and no cracks. The interesting part is the trigger frame, which has the serial #14410 clearly marked under the stock and beneath the trigger guard. A very distict "R" is marked inside the magazine guide, along with the usual Savage "S" mark. It also has the flat, plain type paddle safety and selector switches. I guess that this means that it was once an M1 later converted to M1A1. Anyway... I thought that I should let you all know.
