These are weird looking..../M1

My guess is that these are freshly milled parts that are going into, or out of, a tumbler used to smooth some of the milling marks.

Of course this is just an educated guess.

looks like a bunch of enblocs about to be parkerized?

btw, nice to see you here on cgn clancy, i've seen your trivia posts on battlerifles/amback and quite enjoy them!
 
Gentlemen,

The answer to the picture above is as follows:

The M1 Garand Clips are being Zinc Coated before the Parkerizing is done.

I hope you had fun.

Thanks again
Clancy
ps if you guys keep hitting my sites and I will keep posting data
 
Have you got any info on people doing rebuilds on M1Ds, clancy? I've got a Springfield M1D with an M84 that went to the Danes, but one of the inner lenses has a blemish on it, and I'm wondering if it would be possible to have it rebuilt.
