M1 Carbine Cleaning Aid

#1 Post by MrD »

Hi
when I am giving my M1 a quick clean with a rod, I usually knock the bolt and it slams shut. I used to use a tie-wrap around the sight windage screw and the cocking handle. However, I have created one on my 3D printer. If anyone would like one, all I need is an SAE, so pm me
