A friend of mine, a retired gunsmith in his 80's, has asked me to post this picture and see if these items are worth anything in particular. He (we, actually; he did most of the work, I assembled) had built several 1919A4s back in the 90s and dug these tools up. So, my question is; what might the items be worth? There is an air riveter, air hammer, air grinder, some tools for the riveter, what is probably a reamer and a milling tool, and a lot of rivets, and a bucking bar among other things. There is also a batch of parts, but I haven't been able to photograph them yet.

The air tools look like 'economy' import stuff. Worth 20-25 bucks each high retail at a swap meet or such.

The bucking bar may be of interest to someone here, I cant assess a value, but it doesnt look like its got any way to tighten it down so its of no huge value.

The milling tool is worth 10-25 bucks depending on make and condition.

Everything else seems to be odds and ends. You'd be better off keeping most of that stuff for your own use. Saves a trip to Home Depot or Hazard Freight.

The parts you have will surely bring attention here. Make sure you take pictures of any stampings you may find. Keep us posted.
