Sadly no -

So I just found this in Cartridges of the World.... "The 7.5mm Swiss revolver cartridge is identical to and fully interchangeable with the 7.5mm Swedish and Norwegian rounds" "The two cartridges differ only in bullet type. Most Swedish cartridges use an outside-lubricated bullet whereas the Swiss also used an inside-lubricated type" -

Dude, you're awesome! I'm not sure they're 100% the same, but what I've read, you can shoot them in the M29.... I'll research some more before I throw that kind of money at ammo...... Thanks! -
While browsing gunbroker, I ran across a gun that spoke to my soul.... So I bid on it and was the only bidder.... I'll post better pictures when it gets here. It takes the obsolete 7.5 Swiss Ordnance round, which there are none to be found online for sale. So I'll probably just be sitting around fondling it for a while. Anybody else have one? It should make a good accompaniment to my K31 and 1896/11

I've always been pleased with Xtreme bullets, although sometimes their shipping takes a week or more to get to me..... Amazon prime shipping has me spoiled

Well, I went ahead and bought one from midwayusa, should be here Monday. Depending on what the mold drops the bullets at, I'm hoping to be able to reload for several of my guns with this bullet. There's not a ton of information on this particular mold, but from what I did find, it seems to be one of the best 30 caliber rifle molds to have. I'll post my results
-
Does anybody use this mold.... http://www.midwayusa.com/product/805045/lyman-2-cavity-bullet-mold-311299-30-caliber-309-diameter-200-grain-round-nose-gas-check Just seeing if anybody uses this mold. I'm hoping to use it for 7.62x54r, 7.5 Swiss, .308, and 30-06. There's a .314 version that I may have to get for 7.62x54r and .303 British, but before I throw $100+ at a bullet mold, I thought I'd get some opinions.

I went into the chatroom right after my first post and there were 4 other people in there. It was just odd that I hadn't seen anybody in there for weeks
-
I haven't seen anybody in the chatroom on here in about 2 or 3 weeks.... Just wondering if the recent updates killed it or if everybody just found other stuff to do instead of chatting
-
It's what I do

Seems to be from a Carcano, and made by Terni... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carcano http://www.carbinesforcollectors.com/9138ts.html http://arms2armor.com/Bayonets/ital1891.htm

Because I got a pair of Finns... BWAHAHAHA http://imgur.com/a/HjfGg Got 2 VKT M39s from Classic Firearms. Didn't opt for "hand select" and seem to be in decent condition for the price. Both are 1942, and I seem to have gotten one War time stock, and one Post war stock. The War Time stock seems to have an older action and bolt, and in a little rougher condition. Range report will be soon

I've been watching IV8888's video on the Classic Firearm tour, and every time he holds up a m39, I wonder will my guns look like that one.....
-
Waiting on Classic to send me guns.... I need to keep my mind off of it, or the wait will drive me crazy
-
Ordered 2 VKT M39s from Classic..... will post pictures/videos when they come in!
-
C&R arrived today! Now to get all my accounts with classic, aim, and others setup so I can use my license!!! So many hoops to jump thru. But from August 20 til now only took 23 days to get it back isn't bad

1950s Spanish FR-8 HANDY DANDY Rifle Indeed
MrBrian replied to Ramjo's topic in Curio, Relics and Black Powder
I wouldn't mind having one, looks handy -
I think it's only right for me to get a Hakim before you do Ramjo.... Hurry up C&R!!!
-
If you're gonna shoot the crap out of it, and carry it in your truck, or while in the woods cutting down trees, get a Ruger GP100.... If you're going to leave it in the safe and show it off to people at the shooting range, get a S&W.... Both good guns, just depends on how much you want to spend and how pretty of a gun you want.

Semi Auto Surplus Rifle Collection

It's so pretty, it's so pretty -
The ATF charged my credit card a few days ago.... so hopefully it won't be too much longer.... although many say to expect it to take well over a month
-
You just killed a bear with a 9mm? If so, good job

Any recommendations of where to look for C&R stuff to buy is appreciated
