Does anyone out there have a parts explosion diagram of a 1917A1 tripod? I'm especially interested in the parts comprising the pintle T&E mechanism. Sarco had a diagram listed on their web site at one time. But sadly, it is no longer there.

Take a look in this spot in the 1917 manual It does break it apart but shows it somewhat.

Sorry I forgot to mention that photo and information was found in Tech Manual 9-1005-212-35 (September 1965). You may be able to find this on line. It covers the M1919A4/A6 M1917A1 and tripods M2, M1917A1 and M74. The photo was Figure 1-10 page 72.

With the exploded views Lucky 13 has provided why don't you just give us the letter designations of the parts you are looking for. I don't think the names of the parts are going to make any difference at this point.

OK. Here goes. I was looking over my '17A1 tripod and noticed that there is a loose steel rod protruding from the center of "Part A". It's about 3" long with the diameter of a #2 lead pencil and is just flopping around doing nothing. That ain't right! The T&E works just fine. I'm trying to figure out what that part is and how to correct it.
