RESERVED RESERVED Cold War / Vietnam War Era Chinese State Factory ‘66’ Type 56-1 (AK47 / AKMS) 7.62 x 39mm Calibre Assault Rifle With Folding Stock. Sn 22534:14 - 22534:14 The Type 56-1 Automatic Rifle also known as the AK-56 is a Chinese 7.62×39mm rifle. It is a variant of the Soviet-designed AK-47 (specifically Type 3) and AKM rifles (with folding stock). Production started in 1956 at Chinese State Factory 66. During the Cold War period, the Type-56 was exported to many countries and guerrilla forces throughout the world. Many of these rifles found their way to battlefields in Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East and were used alongside other Kalashnikov pattern weapons from both the Soviet Union as well the Warsaw Pact nations of Eastern Europe. Chinese support for the Democratic Republic of Vietnam before the mid-1960s meant that the Type-56 was frequently encountered by American soldiers in the hands of either Vietcong guerrillas or PAVN soldiers during the Vietnam war. The Type-56 was discovered far more often than the original Russian-made AK-47s or AKMs. This is an excellent Chinese Type 56 with folding stock. It is serial number 19177437 and has other un-matching numbers. The wood work of this weapon has just light bumps and bruises to be expected. It has the correct fore sight, adjustable rear sight, forward sling bar and rear sling swivel. It has a folding skeleton stock which operates as it should.

Chinese War Lord Period C1911 To Late 1940’s FN Browning M1900 .32 ACP Calibre Semi Automatic Pistol & Period Leather Holster. Sn 22534:12 - 22534:12 The FN Browning M1900 (known at the time in Europe just as Browning pistol) is a single action semi-automatic pistol designed c. 1896 by John Browning for Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN) and produced in Belgium at the turn of the 20th century. It was the first production handgun to use a slide. In 1900, driven by feedback from the Belgian military, FN introduced what was later called M1900, an improved design based on the M1899. The weapon is chambered for .32 ACP, also known as 7.65×17mm Browning SR ("SR" denotes semi-rimmed). This is a rare Chinese Browning FN 1900 copy most likely produced in China during the Chinese warlord period circa 1911 to the late 1940s, these pistols appear in a myriad of different designs and finishes. Some can be very crudely hand made and others, like this one are considered very high quality factory made copies, most likely the Jinling arsenal - who were one of only a few companies capable of producing very accurate copies. All are hand finished and often have unique design features. This particular example would be considered to be a faithful copy of a genuine FN1900 but with wood grips opposed to the vulcanite FN signature grips found on FN pistols. The most obvious give away to its authenticity is the lack of script on the left side of the slide and frame. Although the gunsmiths making these pistols were skilled machinists they had no real grasp of what the original script signified and would hand stamp guns with what they thought looked convincing. These guns were usually sold within the Chinese military to a mostly illiterate customer base who wouldn't be aware or appreciate the significance of these markings. They even applied fake FN proof stamps in an attempt to make it more convincing and some genuine parts were sometimes used. If you collect Browning FN pistols, you probably won't have one of these. The pistol is serial number 716 stamped on the slide and frame. The rear sight block is numbered ‘415576’ and has what appears to be Belgian Liege proofs either copied or indicating some FN parts used to build this pistol. The wood grips are undamaged and have naïve hand applied light chequering applied. The pistol cocks by pulling back the slide and it dry fires.. The magazine can be removed and the safety catch works. The pistol comes with a period brown leather holster which has a magazine carrier on the front aspect, rear belt loop and retaining straps, one with eyelet that fastens to a steel lug on the other. The price includes deactivation certificate and UK delivery. Sn 22534:12 £575.00 |

SOLD SOLD (LAY-AWAY 23/07) **VERY RARE**ALL MATCHING NUMBERS INCLUDING CYLINDER**WW1 1916 British WD Officer's Webley MK VI .455 Calibre Service Revolver Officially Period Parker Hale Ltd Converted To .22 Calibre Officer Training Pistol. Sn 22528 - 22528 The famous British Parker-Hale Limited began manufacturing high quality precision shooting accessories in the heart of the gun-making quarter in the year 1880. The founder, A.G. Parker, was a well-known rifleman of the 1st Battalion Royal Warwickshire Regiment and recognised the need for the supply of shooting aids to his fellow shooters. By 1914 the company's small manufacturing plant was well established and it was not long before the vigorous Ministry of Munitions of those days began calling for training equipment, which was needed almost as desperately as the munitions. The Parkerifling process, coupled with the Hiscock-Parker magazine, enabled service weapons to be converted to .22 calibre for teaching recruits to shoot, and demand was such that the Parker-Hale factory was soon working to full capacity. This is an original World War 1 dated British WD Officer's MK VI .455 calibre Service Revolver officially Parker Hale Ltd Converted To .22 Calibre Training Pistol. It is serial number 189936 / 936 which is stamped on the barrel, frame & cylinder. On the right side of the frame it is crisply stamped 'Webley Mark VI Patents' and dated ‘1916’. It has WD proof / inspection marks on its frame and ‘Mark VI’ designation. The cylinder has proofs and is marked Parker Hale. The top of the barrel is marked ‘Converted By Parker Hale Birmingham’ & the muzzle rim 'Parkerifled AGP'. The pistol has its original finely chequered Bakelite grips and Lanyard ring. The pistol breaks open for loading, its barrel is slotted & blocked. The cylinders are open and will accept inert rounds. The pistol’s trigger moves and rotates the cylinder, the hammer moves. The price for this very rare WW1 dated deactivated British service revolver officially period Parker Hale converted to Officer training pistol includes deactivation certificate and UK delivery.
