[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1488575, member: 2736"] Now that was a good post and most of the information was good with a few exceptions. I have worked on old military rifles and believe that if they are bad, fix them. The reason I would recommend fixing them is because they have a history of blowing up in your face for many reasons. There are some rifles made during the second world that are notorious for failure from poor metallurgy to poor or no testing. If you feel comfortable shooting these old rifles in poor condition and out of spec. that is your choice. I don't want anyone to get hurt so I just choose to fix problems and not risk other problems. I love the old rifles and regularly fix them, but I also know there limits and stay away from there limits. Some of your comments were not called for but that's Ok. Because I am 77 and have been reloading for for every type of firearm for over 55 years I have also been building all types of rifles for many years, so I know there strong points and weak points.
