As far as I know they don't make any replicas. A K98K scabbard should fit the 1889 bayonet though, if you just want something to cover the blade.

was going to suggest removing some wood behind the tang to relieve the recoil shock, but looked like it's opened up enough, except maybe for the corners of the radius on the tang. Good job, and on a rare model , thanks.

Don't remember the year. There was a " Disney land " type park in the Bronx. Called freedom land. They had a " Civil war" site you would ride in a wagon and see and hear " fighting". My best friend and I snuck into the display....They used Rolling Block rifles to give the impression of muzzle loaders. Freedom land closed down and I often wondered where those rolling blocks ended up. There was alot of laying all over.

jojoba oil and beeswax is really what you should be using, its perfect, jojoba oil mimics the sperm whale oil they used during the time, without the petroleum it helps keep it from gunking up, you can mix it with beeswax to obviously make a paste or whatever. Frog lube paste is what i use, but im switching over when i can. Camellia oil is what the japanese used on blackpowder rifles.

I found a old remington skeleton in a uncles garage, and had a stock put on it, looks cool, but there isn't a mark on it, can figure out caliber, or anything, gun Smith doesn't want anything to do with it ? So where can I find one round of ammo to find out what it takes ?

I saw these rolling block rifles in 1960 in an old general store for $10.00 ! They were in fair condition but in 44 Spanish so I passed on them. I did get a 303 Mk3 Enfield for $10 out of the same barrel.

About a decade after WW2, here in New Zealand, the government put a lot of the early ww2 issued SMLEs* up for a kind of individual tender, people tendered for one of a "lot" earmarked for their area, by going into the local Post Office and putting your name and address down on a list and making a bid. The highest bid got a rifle, then the next highest, then so on down the bids. I forget now who they said organised it, but the opinion of the men who had served or seen their brothers/cousins go away to serve and, in many cases, not come back, "Those are OUR rifles, we paid for them in the first place, then carried them in peril". so people started to say "We should all go in and bid a shilling" and in the end, most of them were sold for next to nothing. My uncles and father all brought one, because why not. * Most of them were shot out, had seen a lot of work, my dad's one wasn't in particularly good condition. I did see my uncle head shot two geese at 200 yards with his one, prone and taking his time but he was aiming for the head shot because we wanted them for eating. At least his rifle was accurate. I did know one friend of my father, who took a box of beer into the depot where they were being kept, and got two really mint rifles. They called him Goldy, and he was awake to every lurk, and knew which palms needed grease.

Held one in As New mint museum quality condition. Owner found it in a wall wrapped in burlap and tallow grease. NY State marked from 1871 Springfield Arsenal. Eagle marked. Again Mint Condition and for sale for $3,500. He offered it to me alone. No one else. Fully intact color case hardening of the receiver,, bands and butt plate with complete slow rust bluing of the barrel. Almost no dings in the stock, no Bubba assaults on the finish, as it left the factory. The single smoothest, sharpest actions I've ever handled. Rock solid clicks from half cock to full cock. No pits in the barrel or chamber. It was as it left the arsenal in 1871 and not buying it on the spot is one of the handful of regrets I carry.

I believe there was at least one other state that used the 1871 safety model, Florida and ????. I had heard that the safety model was developed in an effort to satisfy a goverment condition that the rifle be loaded from a half cock position, or require the extra step, to be able to fire. They didn't want the troops wasting ammunition.

You can do a lot of work with that small mill. While not a full size knee mill you will be surprised what it will do. I had one for several years before I upgraded to a 1972 model Bridgeport. Clausing makes fine equipment. I used to run a Clausing lathe when I worked for the Boeing company. Just be aware of your cutter size as they won't tolerate large dia. cutters or face mills. You did a fine job on that ejector...
