  1. Take the gun apart, put the lower in an ultrasonic cleaner with Simple Green Cleaner let it soak for about 5 or 10, then put it on vibrate for 5 minutes or longer and be surprised at how much crap will come out. My M1 had a similar condition of misfiring. Cleaned it, oiled the hell out of it and it works great.
  2. That looks like a good one. Did you write it or have some to do with it?
  3. One of my favorites shows to go to. Except, I will not be able to attend this year. Always good stuff to find. Get there early and bring a ton of cash.
  4. Several years ago, when I worked for a underwater photography manufacturer, I was in contact with a research team stationed on Vanuatu. I was trying to think of the member I dealt with, but don't remember, but they had just found a missing Flying Boat in about 200 ft of water IIRK. They had identified the remains of a Naval navigator MIA since the war. I would have loved to join them on a dive back then.
  5. Could it have been something our departed friend, Gordon had done?
  6. I had Earl "One Lung" McClung, Brad Freeman and Lynn "Buck" Compton sign mine years ago. About 6 months later, Buck passed, then Earl and last was Brad. never got the opportunity to meet Bill or the others.
  7. Well, as fate has it, I will not be at the S&S this year. I had an eye surgery done today, and will not be able to drive or be in the light for several days! Crappit! And I was so looking forward to picking on Askew again. You guys have fun, and post photos or text me some. Sorry TH, I was fired up for it this year. Mike
  8. Much like many of the wrapped XXX mags will have a early to mid 50's date on them. Usually 53, 54 or 55. After Korea, greased up and wrapped for future military use.
  9. I remember seeing some of those grips a few years back (10-15) on Fleabay. IIRC they were of Indian origin. At least those were.
  10. That means I would have to drink the bottle I have. That would take me a while to drink that much Vodka and tequila.
  11. Well, just like about every year, someone plans a summer vacation the same weekend as the show. As was this year, even after I reserved a room. BUT, I got good news yesterday. The trip is now two weeks later! So, y'all will get to see my smiling face this year! Curacao can wait! Now, to schmooz the T man to get a table! Text me if you have one available Tracie.
  12. Tom Davis, these are the ones I had text you about. Dan, I had asked to see the other sides of the guns, but like Tom, I agree they are West Hurley guns.
  13. My WH is 587A and the only junk part was the buffer pilot. Changed it out and have not had any issues with it since. I've had it for 26 years now. You can see the model holding it in my avatar.
