I continue my rescue of obsolete small calibre copies of military Carbines with the purchase of one of these Armi Jager AP74s. My first impression was what a load of rubbish, but the...
I now have some MGC 68 spares for sale if anyone is interested. ie Side panels, handgrips, receiver tube and also a proper MP38 trunion (aftermarket copy that came with the receiver). Can ship...
[QUOTE=browningautorifle;133761]It still matters on how welded up and how good or bad the MP38 looks. A cock and click will be more desirable than a CFC solid paperweight. Depends on how badly...
I tried every thinner in the book with Suncorite, and the only one that freely dissolved it without precipitation was Propanol (Isopropyl Alcohol). And it did a good job of cleaning out the gun. Only...
Removing all that stuff and going back with all metal is a lot of fun.[/QUOTE]
I thought I'd have a go at one of these too. Obtained the metal handguard, front band and spring, sight and flash...

We now have a new baby. The 16" Tactical version which in this case had been previously converted to 7.62x39. Used a commercial spec 30mm dia. AR15 tube and buffer assembly which required some...
Just adding a few detailed pictures. All made from No4 stuff. 4425144253
43943Hey guys, one item I am finding hard to source in numbers are the bottom front end cap retaining pins. Also top brass rivets, although I can use the old ones I cut off the end of the hand piece...

So, here we have it. 18" barrel. Removed lug from flash hider (gets caught up in the scrub). This seems to work quite well. Went for the three small holes - 28mm x 10mm - 4392843927 in this...

So the debate continues, some say three.... some say two. What do you guys think?

Finally got this completed. Bought this as a no4 mk2 that had been converted by the previous owner to 7.62 Nato, using the Sterling Conversion and Canadian barrel - not a genuine rifle by...

Had a go at the 'Ishy' problem, those screws, they look so awful, unlike the women that come out of India.
Put a 3/16" brass threaded rod through the hole and an enfield...
Hi, thanks for that, all comments appreciated. The whole purpose of this was to make it a 'pseudo-miltary' piece, and not just another sporterised no4. Point taken about the large cut outs, but they...
Thanks for the positive feedback on the No 4 NZ Bush Carbine. Let all those bubb-a-rites be assured that no good Lee Enfield was harmed in the creation of this product. We source only top quality no...
