Title: Pictures of a Mossberg No. 100 Combination Pliers
Post by: tfleming on August 21, 2011, 06:23:39 PM
Hi guys, brand new to the website, and I love it so far. I have a partially complete Mossberg No. 14 tool set. I have all the socket parts, and a couple of the wrenches. I have been searching the net for a picture of the Mossberg No. 100 combination pliers. If I ever hope to find a set, I need to know what they look like. I know they are rarer than hen's teeth, but thought someone here might know of a picture of them.

Welcome to the forum! There are some Mossberg lovers around here. I'm sure they'll be chiming in as they get the chance.

Welcome to Tool Talk! I like Mossberg, but don't have the pliers.

I love Mossberg also and collect (hoard) all I can find. I cannot seem to find any Mossberg pliers or even a picture. The first one to find and post a picture will for sure be a big winner.

The 100R was the 'rustproof' version of the 100 pliers for the marine set, I dunno for sure that they are identical, but probably so, in which case they should look like this:

Thanks Rusty. So, what I can discern from the picture is that the jaws are a bit "fat", and it has the threaded nut with 2 flat sides to retain the pivot bolt/pin. Any idea if they have the diamond M marking or no markings at all?

PS. thanks to all who have welcomed me. I have a number of antique tools that I have collected, and some antique shop tools, like valve grinders, etc. My real passion in antique Farmall tractors that I restore. I do a good bit of the work myself, and enjoy actually using the old tools to restore them. I just did a valve job with a 1930 Kwik Way valve grinder, and cut the seats with a circa 1920's Sioux valve tool kit. I also collect the original tools for the Farmalls, and my goal is to have a complete set for each tractor. I am partway there, and ways to go.

I think, yes, under the pin nut, here's a different picture of it, I see what may be a diamond...
(sorry, I don't have any better quality scans to work from)

Here is a scan or the 100 pliers from a 1915 Mossberg catalog.
