Hawk's Semi 1919a4 Project: A Pictorial Essay

Below you'll find pics of Hawk's in progress semi auto 1919a4, built from a SARCO Parts kit and an RPB semi kit. Click on any image to see a larger version of that image. This comes originally from http://www.angelfire.com/mi2/fpp/1919.htm and is reprinted here with permission from Hawk.


Semi Auto parts kit as received from RPB


Trigger, Sear, and Trigger spring

Lock Frame and Bolt. Definitely use carbide this endmill was trash when I was done. The bolt is hard.


Opening the bolt for the new larger sear


Lock frame. Notice the hardened tips.


Cutting the accelerator for new wider trigger


Bolt


Barrel Extension


Lock frame


From this pic you can easily see the channel created to clear the raised section of the semi RSP


Fitting the bottom plate

The best 500 bucks I ever spent.


Bottom plate Rivet holes counter sunk so rivets are flush with plate.

From Hawk: The next step is to rivet the thing together. Which to me seems like the hard part. I've practiced a few times and they look like crap. So I'm open to any suggestions. I will put up more pics when I get further along. Also I'm not a machinist so if it looks like I'm doing something crazy, well I don't know any better. Questions or comments?
