The Elusive Breda Garand Elevation Knob

[Orlando]

If doing a Breda restoration you will find its impossible to find a BMR marked elevation knob. The reason being is the knob itself is not marked but the end of pinion is stamped internally



The PB elevation knobs are stamped both externally as well as externally
These are marked on the outside on the drum but also marked internally

Thanks, I never knew that. Now I have to examine all of my elevation knobs.

Only if you have the tool to dissasemble them

You're right, I forgot that I needed that tool.
