darrylta Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) Well, I'm getting a little stoked. Next week I'm heading south for Christmas and will bepicking up my Colt 1918 BMR along the way. The Form 4s have been approved for overa month now,,but I elected to have a face to face with the seller since I was going down thereany way. I'll take some photos of it next year and post.Merry Christmas,Darrylhttp://i897.photobucket.com/albums/ac178/DLRegister/BMR1_zpsa1337d65.jpg Edited June 20, 2013 by darrylta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrylta Posted December 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) Appreciate the kind comments, I'm hoping the internals are as original as theexterior. Here's a couple more of the seller's photos. The rarest of it's featuresare the slim jim barrel, humped butt stock and it's Browning Machine Rifle stamping. http://i897.photobucket.com/albums/ac178/DLRegister/BMR3_zps16389ed5.jpg http://i897.photobucket.com/albums/ac178/DLRegister/BMR4_zps8ef598bd.jpg http://i897.photobucket.com/albums/ac178/DLRegister/BMR5_zps4a4ddd25.jpg http://i897.photobucket.com/albums/ac178/DLRegister/BMR2_zpsb3281d0b.jpg Darryl Edited December 19, 2012 by darrylta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrylta Posted December 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Well I picked it up yesterday, it surpassed all my expectations.I've handled some reproduction front grips made by severalmanufactuers. The real deal vintage grip has angles and curves thatare not milled into the repros, the craftsmanship on these 1918 gunsis really outstanding.Merry Chrismas,Darryl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCM Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Nice to have a little brother to the Monitor ! Congradulations, I guess the ATF decided not to send me my Christmas present yet- And I was a very good boy last year too. New owner photos would be nice ( gun ) OCM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkoholic Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 (edited) Wow, nice! My wifes grandfather, shot the BAR in ww2.....he loves that gun! He said he melted several barrels during the war. I guess he got in trouble many times for that, but said he didn't care, he saved lives with it. Yes, more pics!
