Apologies for the audio; lost everything and this is all I was able to recover.

It's crazy how this rifle looks a whole lot different. The wood is very nice and I was impressed by the shape of the original barrel ! It turned out pretty well, great restoration

Thank you! I was surprised as well. Just goes to show you never judge a book by its cover :-) Thanks for watching as always and I look forward to more updates on your channel.

If interested I have some Springfield Armory trigger housings I'd be willing to do a straight swap for your HRA housing as I'm looking for one in about that condition

Great work on your rifle it doesn’t even look like the same from the 4th of July ! When you said you used Linseed oil , did you use Boiled or raw ?
@MidwesternFC 11 ай бұрын
I was surprised myself. Really like this one. In this case, I used Boiled Linseed Oil as its hot and humid here and everything else takes forever to dry. One the 'backup' stock Ive been doing tung oil and its coming out nice...just takes a while.

@@wildoats1903 I bet it comes out nice. I'm really hoping they get some more 'field grades' in sometime. Best of luck with the expert grade and hope you can pick it up soon!

Serial number tells yu a lot about the receicer , barrel date too, marks on the small parts too.
@MidwesternFC Ай бұрын
They sure do. This has turned into my favorite M1 after some parts switching. Thanks for watching.

What would the designation be for that sling?
@MidwesternFC 5 ай бұрын
That sling is an M1907. They have some good quality repos out there these days. Good luck to you!

How did you query the FOIA process to find out the history of the M1 coming from Philippines?
@MidwesternFC 7 ай бұрын
You can reach out directly to the FOIA department of the Army and put in a request. If you cant find the email online, message me and I'll send it to you. Its a great little resource.
@floridian9897 7 ай бұрын
thanks, was there a fee involved with research and supplying the document?
@MidwesternFC 7 ай бұрын
You are required to say that you are willing to pay up to $25 for the service but they always fulfill it free of charge. Just might take a little longer these days with all the CMP 1911s, people have been flooding the FOIA requests. Mine usually take about two weeks as of recently.@@floridian9897
