1919 build info

[sned45]

At the area 52 shoot a few questions came up about building a semi-auto 1919. Here are some links that might be helpful to anyone deciding to build a 1919.

A list of what is needed to build a 1919.

1919A4 parts kit machined for semi plate
Right hand side plate
semi trigger assembly and sear (Karma metal products)
trigger retrun spring
Rivet kit

A very good reference site is http://www.1919a4.com/modules/Jig/index.php

1919a4 tutorial site. If you are using firefox you might have to change the links from *.asp to *.php IE should work fine.

Couple group buys, not sure if they are still open but if they are these are good prices.

Looks like this one has everything needed but the rivets and machining. If you do order this kit ask if you need 60 or 90 degree rivets.

This guy has machined a bunch of 1919 internals including mine.

As Blue pointed out below Gunthings is a good source for rivets and trigger parts.

You can buy the 7.62x51 links and other 1919 parts at Cole distributing or search 1919a4.com for them.

I prefer to stand when shooting so use a MG 42 AA tripod.

To mount the 1919 on the AA tripod I would recommend checking out 1919_4_me's website.

I use the AA Tripod Adapter & T&E PT# 1001 but I might have to upgrade to his gen II system either way I'm very happy with his setup.

I ordered most of my stuff through here:

Although looking now they don't have much 1919 stuff. I've also got the countersink bit for the rivits they sell, but don't remember if it's a 60 or 90* set if anyone wants to borrow it. Allied Armament did my machine work. My 1919 wouldn't be complete if Sned didn't babystep me through it
