Old Dog,

Do you have to originals of these?

Or, can they be downloaded and saved?

Thanks

Douglas

They are jpeg (pictures).  Just right click on them, choose the option of saving as and save them to a folder on your hard drive. You can even change the name of the file from that series of numbers/letters to something like "front sight", or "gas cylinder", to make it easier to pick out the drawing you want when looking at the list of file names.

No, I don't have the originals, I just saw this on another forum and figured some folks here would find them useful.

10-4. Figured out how to save the images. Even at the largest size the text is too hard to read. :(

Oh well.

Thanks

  After you click to increase the size,click on any size and you have several options as to sizes that you can read.
then you can save the larger size.

Thanks Ken.  I missed that option the first time around.  Just finished saving them all again.  What a great screen saver these will make on my PC (at home and at work).

When the largest image is picked all the numbers/letters are easily read on the screen or if printed.
