Attention! There has been an influx of scammer signups!

The method of operation is to private message you and tell you that you should contact such 'n such person at a given email address.

Please report the private messages. Staff will ban the offender, and I will implement an IP ban. Unfortunately these scammers are using VPN/proxy services, which may mean your VPN/proxy may be blocked.
Attention! About VPN's and foreign IP addresses.

When signing up, do so from a US based Internet Service Provider. Turn off any VPN/safe-browsing feature. Failure to do so will result with your new account denied.

If you run into a IP ban afterwards as a member, again - turn off your VPN or switch servers. We do not ban legit Internet Service Providers from the USA(exception for certain individual IP addresses). Free VPN's tend to get banned too. We try not to ban legit subscription VPN services, but they rarely label their IP blocks correctly.

If you run into an IP ban, it likely wasn't you.

Win 531 WSL model 1907 buffer measurements

My nephew acquired a model 1907 Win 351 self loader. My guess is the maybe one hundred year old buffer is no longer serviceable. I searched the web for a replacement, no luck and if I found one it would be at least 50 years old. If any one has a buffer hidden away who would measure and post the measurements, maybe I (and anyone who reads your helpful numbers) could make one. Thank you for your time.

Uncle Marc.

Update: I found this in a post - (I used a ) head of a rubber hammer basic dimensions .67" diameter .315" (5/16" or 8 mm) hole in center with a height of .4" The .4 " height leaves a bit more gap then a good buffer another showed me however the gun functions well .....

Anybody have anything different??

Update:

I found this during a search:
