It's obviously a pedersen device cut.
In the wrong spot.
Of the wrong size.
On the wrong rifle.

It provides a raised bump inside the bolt channel in the receiver so that on extraction the rim of the cartridge hits it and bounces the cartridge out.

Is it just me or is that barrel doing a banana at the end of the wood?

Other way around, the receiver is the desired part for me, the shortened barrel was wanted by a martini builder intact separately. Brian successfully pulled the barrel with the armourer tools....

Custom hydraulic press vice. We used aluminum bushings, the vice itself is roughly 3 inches wide. It worked excellently for pulling the barrel from a similar model and age rifle in average RTI...

Probably my best bet at this point. You have a great reputation. I'm sending the RTI barrel out to McGowen get copied and eventually once that returns, is it alright if I contact you for rebarreling...

I figure saving the barrel would be futile. I'll probably go with the relief cut 10-20 thou from the ring.

I'm attempting to remove a cut barrel from a Metford II action and I'm not having much luck. I have a proper custom action wrench and I visited a gunsmith with a hydraulic press barrel vise. I...

54r is slightly wider and slightly shorter than 303. The 54r shoulder is closer to the rim. It can feed from an SMLE magazine, and in theory it should feed from a P-14 magazine, but on a P-14, the...

I'm not even comfortable looking at it.

Is that the same color as the nose caps on the cadet rifles? Training use only bayonet?

Looks like a Greener shotgun action

On the MK 3 and similar, you can't open the bolt if it's on the half notch. The safety is only able to engage on cocking piece on uncocked and cocked, not the half notch. You need to get The cocking...

I think I've isolated it to the spur on the plunger rocker. Compared to the reference pistol, and an understanding how the trigger sear works, if the plunger is too long, the sear can't rest on its...

Reference pistol lock also moves back slightly. Good sear from a reference pistol does not work. Lock stop from reference pistol does not properly fit, hammer will not drop to firing pin, but trigger...

Somehow fit a lock frame somewhat successfully, except for the lower sear, sounds like the trigger is falling off the sear before it pushes the hammer sear up. It appears to have been filed more...

I found a C96 Red 9 police rework at a show and after deciding it was authentic, numbers matching and has great blue, failed to notice the frame lock was broken at the base of the ejector. The piece...

Moderately surprised they don't move more of these museum ships into the Great lakes because of the reduced maintenance costs from fresh water. I heard the cooler temperature helps too. Every once in...

You have to remove the flash hider to install the retaining ring.
I did a similar restoration and cut the bottom of the ring to bend it over the barrel. It worked well enough as a temporary part...

I'd almost be tempted to make it up to resemble something like an RIC carbine as a placeholder, or go all in as a classic sporter, see the Lee Speed.

You would have to lose the flash hider, and...

They can be hard to find, but I believe the vintage parker hale target sights are no drill, using the existing screws for the safety.

Edit. Looked into it, the No 4 type requires the old sight...

Looking to buy a heavy (H) profile barrel Lee Enfield No. 1 barrel. Looking for decent rifling and a good throat. I'm specifically requesting a barrel with crown damage because the barrel will be cut...

Long Lee

My original thought was 'What safe, cheap, easy to find 30 caliber cartridge can I use to make a fun plinker rifle I can shoot all the time?'

The answer to that is 7.62x39. It requires some...

I also got myself a No 4 for Christmas. Mine is one of those nice unissued Long Branch rifles from NZ.
The magazines are not considered interchangeable and only meant to be removed for cleaning....
