Thanks very much for that. That is very interesting. It's nice to see proof of camo paint use. This forum really is quite a deep mine of information.

A shooter.

Thanks for your reply.
If you could send a photo of your rifle that would be very interesting to see.
I have gotten one of the Indian actions. They are DPed so there is a bit of a risk getting them.

I've managed to get a hold of a No.4 Mk1 T action, and I'm planning to make a clone of the camo painted rifle in the attached picture. I'm thinking that by painting on a camo pattern, I can use an...

I'm looking for a No.4 Mk2 trigger guard & stock fore end. I'm in Vic Oz, so locally sourced parts would be preferable.

Thanks for the reply Brian. I'm just after one. I might try the classified section for the first time to see if I can source a local (Oz).

Hi all,

I have a slightly beat up FN Mauser in 30-06.

The top of the barrel end near the receiver has been ground off where a crest is in some other examples I've seen.
It has a dull silver...

Thanks for that Bruce.. , Rodger & Cinders.
I thought that it looked a bit too fine to be a std thread.

Hey all,

I've ended up with a slightly "bubba-ed" Lithgow .303

The threaded metal stock insert which receives the vert bolt on that big ugly front sight protector is absent.
Is this a standard...
