Anyone renumber an original mint Inglis barrel to replace a pitted Inglis barrel with the same font?
 
My Laserpecker 2 can mark the steel, but not engrave it.
With great good luck, I'll have my Mr. Carve M3 next month.

They can do any font you can find, even from a photo.
 
If we see you selling an all matching Inglis in the EE, we'll all be supremely disappointed after you posted this thread. Forging matching numbers is kinda frowned upon.
 
I have enough Inglis high powers that are mint matching with stocks etc
This will be the option, you get both barrels
Re lining the barrel, isn’t an option because it isn’t that bad
I have a few UN numbered barrels and though that I would see how one turns out
How many people have sold gun’s after doing a re number and not telling anyone?
I bet Vulcan has a long list
 
Purple is right, I have been in the military surplus game for over 50 year’s, and you see rifle bolt’s that appear to be new ,
with the same font number’s , but they are cut deeper than the number’s on the rifle
The rifle’s were exc/mint
So, what ‘s the call ?
I have a Garand Rifle that I selected from helping Allen Lever sort through thousand’s of gun’s, that has the barrel , op Rod,
serial numbered to the gun , which is mint, what’s the call?
I agree with the re numbering issue, but, what says what you see is original and not
arsenal and what is factory
I have a few Inglis that were tagged from Inglis , to purchasing commission, to military and finally Lend Lease Greece
They are mint with the holster’s, mags and lanyards
The tag’s were lost in shipping, but, I know that no one rebuilt them
One is mint stock cut with fixed sight etc
No one can say for certain, without papers, what really happened with any firearm
 
It’s Buyer Beware with anything you purchase.
Gunbroker auction is bad.
Lots of humped firearms. No shortage of crooked hucksters.
 
I think the point is, if you are humping it yourself, there is no call to make. You know it's fake. If you pass it off as original, you are comitting fraud, whether there is realistic prospect of being caught or not is irrelevant. You still have to sleep at night.

As for numbering M1 parts... No factory did that. Any serial numbered M1 part aside from the receiver was done after manufacture.

Also 99.9% of the time, most collectors can tell a fake humped number from a real one. Not that hard usually.
 
Some armourer did it,
I kept it because someone might have the answer
The font is incredible, just the same
 
In surplus you can learn something every time a lot is released
by a Government Arsenal
I saw a lot of interesting firearm’s in the 1980’s Israel
Surplus sales They are like the Russian’s, they kept everything
 
Vulcan did a very nice job according to the pictures
He didn’t polish it like the original , so one can tell it
was a re numbered Inglis barrel
