  1. The Lee-Enfield Forum
    Just got a 1917 the other day. Today I tried the decocking trick of holding the trigger down while closing the bolt. After I did that, the trigger is now loose after firing. Basically, with gravity the trigger is free to move all the way forward to the front of the trigger guard, this is shown...

    I have a pair of Savage pistols one 1907 and one 1917. Each acquired from different places and both 32acp. the trouble I have is I cannot seem to get them to function reliably (or at all). They feed from magazine fine and fire first round every time and even load the next round. However the...

I recently acquired an m1917 Eddystone that I believe served in the Danish Home guard. It has Canadian marks on it and it has the front blade replaced with a post...
  6. "The American Arsenal" US Weapons - Past & Present
    Just got this in the mail today: I've been looking for a 1917 in as original condition as possible that was likely a trench veteran, this one is... pretty close to original (original blue at least) but the markings have an interesting story to tell. From what i've seen all parts are Eddystone...
