Parker hale m82-m87-C3-C3A1 Rifles

[ShootSavage]

Hi,

There is a number marked on the bolt handle, can someone tell me what that number is? The thing is, we have 2 C3A1 where I work that are identified with such ''ID number'' on the bolt handle. I'm just curious if that rifle ever was in our hands.

Nice!!! I love the look of that stock

Thank you very much, the pictures are excellent.
Regards Tim

I didn't read the thread so I don't know what it's about but I saw the pictures of those rifles and all I know is I like it I like it alot. Are those a couple of 50 cals in there? Man would I like to shoot one of those

Can someone educate me on the C3a1 scope base ring diameter?? I'd like to find a good scope to put on and also see if my Mark 4 might already fit (30 mm tube).

C3a1 is a very unique fabrication. It's was a miltiary contract order, one piece base and 1" rings. Only fits the M87/C3a1 receiver. There ain't very many of these out in the civie world. There's a picture posted of this base in about the mid of the thread.

You need to first determine which action you're built on or building on. Bases need to be selected to corrindate with the rings and scope selected. Mark 4 could be used on a clone if rings/bases selected to be compatible with your receiver.

I agree. If you are building on a M87 you would need the correct eqpt, if you are building on a commercial PH (and there's not a lot of difference) then you just use commercial 98 rings and bases, which will work with your Leupold handily. - dan

Congratulations on one of the nicest C3 kits I've seen in a long time. Stock and metal work are outstanding. Bolt looks like the real McCoy, most clones just have a sporter bolt. Detail really makes the gun. I see that you've got C3 steel scope bases, PH RALS.4 rings and the rare ZF69 scope as well as the military irons. You're one lucky guy!

 

[FrankCJ7]

I really need to get some pictures of the C3s we have at the office. One is brand new! And it would be good source of info for those wanting to make a replica. I'll try to get some next week!

 

[Dave.S]

Are they C3s or C3a1s?Why do you have rifles at your office?Dave

 

[dan belisle]

Why don't you have guns at your office? - dan

C3A1 with wood stocks (prior to McMillan stock)

 

[tps50701]

Well, this needs a bump to see whats been going on in the world.

Anybody build anything else since hibernation set in - lol!

Seeing as the shooting season is upon us, I thought I'd see what all the C3/C3A1 CGN's have been upto.

All the best, Carl

Well here we go on the search again. Looking for a Kahles ZF69. If you have one to part with or know the whereabouts of one. Let me know. Going to try the canned beans diet again if I can find one.
