![]()
Here's a few publications every Browning owner should have in their library.
Base Shop Data books with early 1940's publication dates for the 1918A2 BAR, the 1917A1, and the 1919A4. Each weapon has a seperate book. BSD's were developed by the Rock Island Arsenal to train factory armorers to disassemble, inspect, overhaul, assemble and test these weapons. They are quality reproductions of the ACTUAL arsenal documents, not some copy of a copy of a copy. Printed on 80 pound offset stock, spiral bound so they lay flat on the workbench with a clear plastic cover.These BSD's have step by step instructions with clear line drawings and have the reduced size drawings used to produce the special tooling needed to rebuild and test these weapons. BSD's are a must for your library.
$25 per copy delivered.
Also available are Standard Nomenclature List A-6 for the 1919 family of BMG's these are parts catalogs that also show accessories, your choice of publication dates 1941, 1943, 1944, and 1947.
The prewar (May 1941) version of the A-6 catalog also lists the rare A2 Cavalry version with the 18" barrel along with all the tools, accessories, packing specifications and spare parts allocations including the pack frame for horse transport and the prices of each component part! This SNL is is like prying open the door to King Tut's tomb.
$10 per copy delivered. Please specify which dates you require.
Last but not least, ORD 1 (1955) Introduction, formerly called "Purpose and Use" this document is the "Rosetta Stone" of Ordnance publications it lists SNL classification codes for everything Ordnance supplied, and has a detailed explaination of the various stock number systems.
$15 per copy delivered.
SNL's and ORD 1 are center stapled and printed on standard weight paper.
If there is anyone interested I have a 3 sheet set of the actual size drawings dated September 30, 1936 used by M1919 manufacturers to ship 2
M1919A4's.
These drawings consit of an assembly sheet, a detail sheet, and a bill of materials and drawings sheet.
This shipping crate was originally designed to ship 2 M1919A4's, it can be modified to carry one M1919A4 plus a tripod and other accessories.
The complete set (three drawings) is $35 rolled in a mailing tube shipping is included in the price.
Yeah, sounds like a lot of money for three sheets of paper but, the sheets cost me $5 ea to reproduce and I've got more than a few bucks in converting the digital image into a usable format, and then there's the shipping.
So, if you don't think this is highway robbery and want a set
you can e-mail me
You will not be disappointed in either the content or the quality of these publications.
Personal checks accepted for orders from board members all others postal money order.
