| Hello petesos, welcome to the Forum Posting photos can be done in two different ways here. First, if you scroll along the icons just above the white text box when you reply or write new posts, the first icon is B (bold) then I (italic) and so on until you get to the 15th icon as it appears on my screen, a popup will appear stating"Host an Image"Click on that and follow on through Free registration to a Image Sharing site. This system works well and is easy enoughThe second method is to use "Photobucket" website. The guide to set this up is here: We'll look forwards to seeing your photos. Itentifying cartridge type should be straightforward enough. It's either going to be an early type using "Open" cartridges (no longer made), an early one converted to use custom c.p. cartridges (more on this later) or later model using standard MGC .223" c.p. cartridges.It would be very helpful if you could possibly show the Detonator Pin in the Chamber, Magazine showing the top view (feed lips and follower)A photo showing the hammer and firing mechanism in the lower receiver would be handy too Till later then Pete, _________________ Cerwyn
