    Trouble with my Reising Model 50

    http://www.uzitalk.com/forums/showthread.php?93753-Reising-quit-running&p=834184&highlight=#post834184 Try this thread. Mine wouldn't run when I got it. 2-3 rounds, or singles in FA. I ended up removing the selector, & it ran like a champ(FA, WITH NO SAFETY) This was only a test, & I really...

    Got it back.

    I bought mine in '94, 1 firing pin, & 1 broken Action Bar. Other than that smooth sailing.

    Reising quit running

    I'll second the selector leg. When I bought mine, I couldn't figure out why it would give 2, or 3 rounds in FA, then stop. I took the selector off of the gun, & it ran fine in FA. Bought a new selector, & it's run ever since. That was 1994.

    Bolt Has Wear in Sear Catch ARea -Need Advice

    My 76/45 bolt wore the same way, started running away. I took measurements to the step, then welded it up, & re-cut the step. It's been a few years, but works like it should, & I keep my eye on it.

    Considering Stemple 76/45. any input?

    I was thinking about pocketing out the orig. bolt, & inserting it with a piece of A2, or 4140, at least. the sear catch was my only concern. it seems like the weld is working, so I thought, just go with it.

    Considering Stemple 76/45. any input?

    BigMT, That's pretty much what I figured, soft bolt. It's good to know what material the bolt is made from for future reference.

    Considering Stemple 76/45. any input?

    I've got an early one, Sq wood hand grip, etc. S/N 1045(I think) I bought it in 2001, so I've had it a while. A couple of years after I bought it the gun started running away. It kept firing after releasing the trigger. Some times 1, or 2 rounds, sometimes the rest of the mag. The sear notch on...

    S&W 76 replacement grips

    Gotta ask, how did you get the 3D model? Laser scanner, or measure, & draw?

    .45 Stemples

    I'd have to say to runs near 900 rpm, pretty fast. I've only got a few thousand rds. through it, I only get it out about once a year. I bought it in 2001, paid $1900.00. The triggers on them are pretty lousy, heavy as all get out.

    .45 Stemples

    I've got an "early" Stemple S/N 1040, looks like the first link. They use modified M3 GG mags. A slot needs to be cut in the correct place for the mag catch, not hard to do on a mill. The only trouble I've had was it started to run away. Seems the sear notch on the bolt eroded, & wouldn't catch...

    Found a Reising in a friends gun cabinet

    Could be a new made barrel, with no fins, fitted for a Thompson Comp. Good replacement Reising barrels are not easy to come by, you have to drill the comp to remove it on a Reising, so that may explain the Cutts.

    Found a Reising in a friends gun cabinet

    Gun Parts(Numrich) was selling Black replacement stocks 15, or so years ago, it could be one of those. If the serial # has a letter prefix, it is most likely one of the "later" guns. The ones made in the 40's were all straight numeric S/N guns, I believe. Frank's Reising book will help you out.

    Tips for a new Reising owner?

    Need modified Grease Gun mag measurement

    Got a chance to measure my 6 mags, I cut 5. I measured from the top of the rectangular slot on the spine of the mag to the bottom of the cut slot, then added .25 for the slot width. .15+.25=.4( one of my mags measures .165+.25=.415). All of my mags run. I figured the rect. slot is in the same...

    Recommended Powder & Bullet shape for the Reising

    In my opinion, it doesn't really matter what you shoot, as far as the comp "blowing fins". Yes, if you shoot lighter loads it MAY put less pressure on the comp, but really how much less?? The comps. blow out due to a flawed manufacturing process and design. Using thin walled tube, and cutting...

    Question On Value Of Reising 50 Stock Value

    Numrich used (still might) to sell repro stocks with plastic H&R buttplate for $75. An orig. Would certainly bring more.
