    A "duh" moment: Mann V Rest

    You know. Sometimes you slap yourself over your own stupidity. I had always had a vision of the 1903 Mann receivers/test barrels sitting nicely upright and normal in the V device, until I saw a picture of a setup in a 1922 Arms and the Man article. Duh. Of course it had to be UPSIDE DOWN.

    No floor plate either. Wonder if they fed the rounds in from there if it was just considered un-needed?

      So much for that MkI stock.
