Are there pictures of two different rifles here? One appears to have the wood chopped, the first pictures (1 and 3) the wood appears intact on the left side of the rifle. Also, to me, and from the...

I have a PH5C on an old No.4 and i am takign to to the range this week - it's zeroed at 100 yards for an "i" sight picture on a 6 inch black.
My friend just informed me that the 300 yard range...
Thats the one I have - so the lever on the left pushes FORWARD. Perfect. it wouldn't go that way initially and I didnt want to force it, but at least I know it's supposed to now.
I have one of these on a No.1 Mk.1. It appears to have a movable level on the left side of the receiver which can be moved rearwards, to allow the base of the sight to pivot from the right side, yet...
Minute of German acheived. My eyes are an issue at 100 yards now unfortunately. More and more I find myself intending to take an SMLE but picking up a rifle with a scope. My favourite is my No.4 in...
Couls only get at the to 4 inches at the muzzle end but appears to be .7859" in outer diameter with no taper in that distance.
The Bren chest I have is also Greek in origin. Am I right in thinking that the No.1 HT snipers actually used converted Bren chests for their transit chests, as opposed to the No.4 'T's which had...
The one I have has an Enfield / Metford bolt mounted safety on it. I am interested also in how the sliding safety works as I have one on my Lee Speed.
To sum up - if anyone either sees (or has) one of these for sale in the USA please feel free to message me so I can try to get hold of one. Thank you everybody for the information.
The one on that website is EXACTLY what Im looking to get hold of with the Buttstock wrist safety. Absolutely beautiful.
Anyone have, or have information on, one of the the BSA .410 shotguns made around the early 1900's? I have one with an Enfield cocking piece and safety (it is the No.1 model) and it looks very L.E....
thank you
on No.1 Rifle one must take off the forend BEFORE removing the Buttstock, correct? ...or was that No.4s.
Fainter but I checked and that is it - 100%
how many rounds were going through it to replace a barrel twice per year?
This is great advice. As this is a polytech clone how should I ensure that the springs are the right diameter etc and everything is compatible?
Sorry about blasting this forum with questions: Can anyone advise the best list of spares to get for this rifle. I was going to order a spare set of springs at least but are there any other standard...
Any reason I need to fill the gap? Its not like I'm in the trenches and mud and blood will gum up the works.
Noob to M14's here.
This is a polytech clone in what appears to be a USGI stock given proof marks etc
Quetsion is : what is missing / goes here? 124663
Cant swear to it - could maaaaybe be an S if I turn it 90 degrees - guess ill have to strip it and see if there's anything else marked.
On my m14 there is under the butt trap, on the hinge side, a "U" in a square stamped into the wood. Outside of a "P" and a "P" in a circle, both underneath and behind the trigger guard this is the...
Interesting thank you. What would a target shooter have used on a rifle like this? I assume that the sling arrangement would have been different than in military service.
What is the correct sling for an LSA Long Lee Enfield dated early 1900's please? Also where would it be attached as there are 3 sling swivels I have a standard SMLE sling dated 1913 but its clearly...
i was outbid on that batch of consecutive number rifles :( I was intent on buying them whatever it took, but before the auction ended our freezer burst a pipe and flooded the kitchen and I had to...
110497110498110499OK so the update here. I've straightened the trigger guard (was bent), replaced the sear (original bent) and trigger (original filed down) and replaced the draws with oak per...
