Hi , I am a new member here but have over 400 deals at 100% on CGN (username - arealgunnut . I make high quality Lee Enfield reproduction woodsets in Canada using a computer CNC. I currently make sets for No 1 Mk 3, No 4 Mk 1 and No 5 Mk 1.

If these are affordable and look good then could be a new toy for us... No 5 rifles would benefit the most I think, although No 1 Mk 3 would also be nice to be able to restock at a whim. What kind of turnaround on orders? Can you ship internationally, Europe, USA?
I had seen your post. While I'm currently not in need for a stock I would highly appreciate if you could post some pictures of how a finished stock (oiled) looks like. I would want to know how the wood you are using looks like. Thank you!
There would also be demand for Ross stocks and handguards.
Good point, we have a member that was doing some production but as it was his second job and there were issues with material I'm not sure how much he's doing...Quote:

I would second Promo's request for photo's. If the product is good, looks the part, & isn't totally outrageous on price, there will be a market internationally - especially if the OP can offer the other stuff that has been mentioned, like Ross stocks & guards, MLE/LEC wood, No5 wood sets, & so on. I'd certainly like to see more & am a potential customer.
Addendum: sorry, just noticed No5 wood already available! Excellent.
If you guys look at his WTS page, you can see samples of his woodwork...here... https://www.milsurps.com/showthread.php?t=68567
Nice looking stuff...
I would think in order to offer other stuff, one would need samples that were about perfect to use in pantograph? Anyone willing to lend something out for sample?
It might be worth making the butt longer than the short ones we always get. I would say at least 25mm longer per length from bantam to long. If it isn't already.
That would be nice, specially in #5 rifle. I had a long once...just the butt. Only one I ever saw.Quote:

I've only ever seen one and many here have spoke of their scarcity too.Quote:

I ship all over and can generally ship the next day after payment if it is a week day. A complete wood set is 350 Canadian dollars plus actual shipping. Please PM me with any questions. Cheers to all. Ralph

How true or not that is I have no idea, but seems logical given the relative scarcity of 'L' butts.
