    Default 1919 Building

    We had a get together today [and tomorrow] at my shop to build a few 1919 semi-auto's [4]

    Crappy cellphone pictures but you get the Idea.












    If God didn't intend us to have guns why would he have given us a trigger finger?

    Looks like a lot of fun. I wouldn't mind having an M1919A6 just for fun. Here is a FA version I got to shoot. It was built on a reciever bought from a gentleman in Florida. He is supposed to have nearly $1,000,000 worth of registered M1919 recievers in his posession.

    that's a parkerizing tank and used for parkerizing the steel as soon as it came out of the blast cabinet.

    My question: Did you get it from Brownells, or another source. Right now, I'm having a hard time spending $60 plus for a tank to park one piece......

    Looks good, Btw. Helluva shop you got there!

    Correct, the tank on the stove is for parkerizing, that tank belongs to the guy in the first & last Picture [not me] he bought it from 'Aw-sim' out of Pittsboro, IN. I'm not sure what he paid for it.

    It did make me decide to stay with a smaller tank that what I was planing.

    I'll end up bending up my own tank and TIGing it together, I have plenty of SS sheet at the shop to make one.
