M1 Rifle headspace gages

[RCS]

These are WW2 era headspace gages, notched for the M1 and each gage has a different drawing number,
This is not a complete set as a complete set would start at 1.940 thru 1.950.

These are collector items as they would need to be checked before using them. During their use,headspace
gages were sent in once a year to be checked and there was a gage card for each gage. Notice some of these
gages were re-numbered and changed during inspection
