So I'm going to start begging around for who has what old guns and I figured this would be a lot less messy than making a bunch of threads. Obviously let me know of ANYTHING you'd like to donate to the project. I've had a lot of luck with people contributing so far but it seems like I never have the pictures I need when I need them!
Anyway, I'm going to try a few focused requests to see what people have laying around on hand or have spotted in the wild. Whenever I leave town with the light box I'll also update here so people can donate when I'm passing through.
Current requests:
Later war Nambu with wide trigger guard and magazine retaining spring. Would very much help if you're willing to disassemble to compare strikers.
Anything Carcano in original configuration. (except M38's in 6.5 with fixed sights got that. Sporterized wouldn't matter if you have a pre-1912 bolt head to take a picture of)) Not enough info out there for such a common rifle!
