Its a shame its been cut down, but its a lovely little hunting rifle. Very nice grain on the timber.
It was going good until the last two pic's.......bugger.
It has a Canadian ancestory as the stock mark, M&D is a Canadian mark indicating Militia and Defense. The dics marking is xx Canadian Field Artillery. FWIW.
In that case probably "10th Battery...."Quote:

I can copy parts if I had an original to copy from. I can make the nose cap by casting them in a sand mould. The wood I would just try and find a stock malker who would make copies or if there was enough demand I could buy the machine and make some and some long lee stocks while I am at it
I have 3 rifles to restore an 1896 LE 1 and two 1898 LEC 1's that are of the canadian variety

I have some pics of the work he does, will try and post them here he has spliced numerous LEC and Long Lee fore-ends, but also makes the LEC from scratch.
