    Friend showed me 3 nice shotguns he had just bought.  One a solid, cleanable '87 and he has one already.  What is the going rate -  not bad, not attractive?  No pix I hate phones.  He literally stole those guns at the price he paid!

     

    Original, IAC / Norinco, or Cimarron?

    Now, even today the Navy carries grain alcohol aboard ship for electronics techs to use for cleaning circuit / cable contacts but it is secured and regulated…for the most part;)

    I  believe this was all brass pounding.

    Morse code.

    No idea if they used a bug or not, or if it was all straight key work.

    To stay up that many hours, steady, pounding out names one after another ... that man has my respect!

     

    Based on photographic evidence, most historians agree that the Wireless Operator on the RMS Titanic was using a Marconi 48200 key or one very similar. It is a straight key capable of switching the high currents associated with the Marconi spark Gap transmitter that was installed on the RMS Titanic.

    Based on the pictures above, he has my respect as well.

  5. Yep 4 round clips.  The feed magazine on the Bofors holds 7 or 8 rounds.

     

    In the video below, at the 1:20 mark, you can see them loading the 4 round 40mm clips into the ready storage magazine on the AC. Starting at the 7:25 mark you can watch them load and fire it.

  7. My APP load for monthly matches

     

    STS or Gunclub Hull

    Any 209 Primer

    CB0178-12 Wad

    2.7 to 3 cc (33-35 grains by weight) of 3F APP

    7/8 oz of shot

     

    What I found is that using less that 2.7 cc of APP resulted in the hull not sealing the chamber. This allowed excessive blowby and caused the hulls to stick.

     

    As long as I did my part it always takes down any KD I encountered.

    That's the exact same thing I am seeing. Started a couple hours ago. Rebooting my Chromebook had no effect.
