The holster is for your M48. Chinese holster is of tan leather and has a blue corduroy liner. What year is your T54?
 
Here's my lastest (Oct.) purchase....
A Springfield 1903, dated 1907
and a not so milsurp Beretta M76S .22 that I bought for the missus.

That's a nice looking Springfield, what's the bore like, pitted or might have been rebarreled in WW2, I had one like your's, the Yanks refer to the stock as a "Scant Stock, as it is not a full pistol grip. Can you find any markings as to whether it was rebuilt???

Yeah, it's definitely a rebuild.
Barrel was changed out in '42 (SA with flaming bomb 7-42).
I originally thought the bore was dark, but after a thorough cleaning the bore has lots of rifling and shiney with no visible pitting.
The stock has the RA-P cartouche, RA-P = Unknown Remington M1903A3 Rifles 1942-1944. And with the letter "K" stamped in the indentation where the cutoff lever is (no idea what the K stands for.)
The only other markings is on the bolt which is stamped with ""c 7".
Overall, the rifle is in very good condition and hopefully will be an excellent shooter once I get the headspacing checked out.
 
Nice FN peter ;)

Picked this up today, and I got to check the bore on this one before I bought it lol:

Exc+ Vis 35, series 2, T block with matching numbers, both mags and holster...likely a vet bring back
 
not in the least...I just have this disorder called milsurps diesease :lol:

Got this kit recently but the bores pretty ####...Im gonna either sell it or shoot the crap out of it when I get some ammo!!!

 
Just picked up a 1941 Tula SVT 40 today. Not one of the recent refurbs, an older import with the in-the-white bolt carrier etc.

Only problem is that some idiot defaced it by stamping a small "SA" in a box on the receiver and mag :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Owww... :shock:

Did you get it like that??....looks like the gas was adjusted wrong and the bolt hammered the reciever to pieces. To bad...never even seen a Finn SVT-40. The wood looks great
 
yea I did, seller is going to refund me a little over half what I paid (also offered to take it back but I got a little too attatched to it)...have a buddy who might take it if I dont want it...in the meantime Im looking for another finn SVT!

I think its bent so bad its causing the trigger group release button to be jammed...tried a hammer and punch but cant get it too budge...thats two wall hangers in one week!! :evil:
