Alright I though this might be fun, if you dont then let me know and I will not list anymore.[B)] I am just getting into firearms and eventually will buy some BOOKS [:(] but being raised on the WWW. I am more inclined to start here. I was thinking that rather than burn everyone out on my wanting to know about various items this could be fun for you as well as me.[:D] Well we will see. Here is 7 items that I have multiples of and was wanting to know what they are. I have some ideas but no answers. Thanks, Tom

    #6 are sight inserts-probably for a Lyman #17A front sight.

    4. Bushing installation tool (M1911 pistol).
    5. Lower band (Front sling attachment-M1 garand).
    3. Not a gunpart. Screwdriver/punch combo (tool).

    #1 looks like a High Standard barrel weight, but I'm relying on a not so reliable memory here.
    Great pics,
    Fine idea,
    Thanks,

    #5 is a "stock ferrule" for an M1 rifle; there are many variations, but your photos are not close enough to tell who made it or if it is original or a replacement.

    hulkaru, welcome to the gb boards. to update you on what you have going on here is well known to the gang as 'mystery pics.' i started it about 5 years ago and its good to see others join in as yourself. actually what we're doing is highly encouraged for educational reasons and because...its a gun website! keep up the good work. it will be hard pressed to stump these guys. theyre tough![:)]

    btw...#1 is indeed a hi standard bbl weight. specifically, it only goes to a model 100 or a model 101 new haven target series gun.
