Anyone have any info on this press? Diagram, parts list...etc.

I think it depends on what caliber you order. I sent in 2 at the same time, one for 9mm and 45. Took about 2 weeks to get the 9. Still haven't got the 45.

Forum: Swaging
Got it. Had the handle setup like a reloader. Moved it to be at at 45 degree angle. Now derims like butter.
Forum: Swaging
How much pressure do you guys have to apply to derim the case? I'm using an unmarked derim die with a Lee cast and rce lube and it's a pia. I haven't drilled any holes to change the linkage yet. Any...

Ok. Thanks. I wonder what else I can use it for?

This was in a lot I got at an auction. Hoping some of you military guys could tell me what the heck it is. It folds down flat and has a circle at the top. Portable trash can, pot holder ?

Looks like you need a few more model 61 pots. LOL
