Review: Tripod Drawings CD by staff@1919a4.com Some of you mentioned that you wanted to see shop drawings of the M2 tripod. Orin Harding's done you one better, bringing you a CD with all the Rock Island Armory's specs, parts lists, and detailed info on their own M2 tripod. This information was created and submitted by C.A. Waldmann, Colonel, Ordnance Department, and approved by Brigadier General J. Kirk, Ordnance Department, Industrial Service, Small Arms Division in May of 1945. The documents (in PDF format) include: Introduction A13 Series Drawings A14 Series Drawings A16 Series Drawings A17, A18, A19 Series Drawings B10 Series Drawings C Series Drawings Hardware Drawings Bill Of Materials There are over 90 original-sized drawings and prints, all in Adobe PDF format, right down to every nut, bolt and screw. The Adobe PDF viewer is also included on the CD. here's a pic of the M2 from the introduction letter (click to enlarge) The text in the manuals was scanned in high resolution, so you can zoom in and won't lose any clarity until you go beyond 400 percent, and you can easily read it down to 33 percent. Here's a screen capture of the text at 42 percent: here's a pic of the introduction letter text (click to enlarge) The cost for the CD Price is $33.85 if paying by money order or $35.10 if paying by PayPal, with shipping by priority mail.
