They are a great tool in understand how weapons work and in my case allow me to see the functioning of the guns that we make.  I own a number of cut away weapons and have photograph a number of other ones as well. As I am always on the look out for them I thought I would share some of them that are currently available at the Cowan Auction house.

To begin there is a Enfield cut away rifle, lot 195,  http://www.cowanauctions.com/lot/cutaway-lee-enfield-rifle-186031/

They combined the design of John M. Browning with the manufacturing techniques they had available. I am not going into the history of the TT 33 Tokarev, it has already been written about on the internet . I just found on my trip through the mid-west this last year a new version that I have never seen before. The 22 trainer. Here are a set of pictures that I took of one of the pistols that I looked at. It seems that everyone out there has one because I saw a number of them.

DSC_1419csSorry about this picture. I tried to get a close up of the slide bolt face to show the firing pin location.

DSC_1421csThis is how it came with the 7 sub-caliber devices.

DSC_1423csI don’t know if this pistol was actually used in the military training or just a pistol made for the civilian market. I just know that I would really like one. So if anyone knows were one exists one for sale please let me know.
