I'm the same way with history, TT.

Or it came back many years after.
Also it depends where you get the sand and how deep you dig to get it I guess.

True, finding a sealed bunker would be your best source of fresh WW2 sand.

hey man I'm thrilled with anything.

It just looks like a rusty piece of steel.Did you see a pic of it?
If I didn't collect it myself I couldn't tell where it comes from.

If you decide to refinish it, go with the original Dulite, with feed ramp polished after dulite. Just saying, if you do it, might as well do it right.

If I found that I would have better stuff to send to TT than sand.
I'm talking Nazi gold and stuff!

Also you dont have sand in bunkers, they have a concrete floor.

Sand gets everywhere. If the bunker is around sand, it will get tracked in, might just need to sweep it into a pile or go with a battery powered shop-vac. lol

I don't know if they were all dulite or not?
the nice one I have is all original. Feed ramp never parked. It's just aged bare steel

Yeah you sent me a pic. Still cool to me knowing it came out of a nazi bunker.
of coarse I'd like a luger or a nazi belt buckle more but I'm not greedy

Yeah but if I found a bunker who was sealed for 70 years I'm not gonna sweep the floor.

It's from one of those steel beams on the ceiling.

Research the serial numbers, that serial number was a 43 production, numbers 950k-990k I believe, were all dulite, which is a special bluing over sandblasted steel. The feed ramps were polished to a shine afterwards.

If you find a dead nazi, I want a pinky bone, and any intact emblems/buttons from the disintegrating uniform.

 

[Trigger Time]

Yeah it's a 43. It's earlier too than my other 43.
hell this thing could have seen WWII, Korea, and nam. Freakin crazy!

You know you can contact Remington and ask them from their data on that pistol. Springfield is pretty good about doing that, I'd imagine Remington would be as well.
