They won’t ship to Canada.
Great photos. Thanks for sharing.
Great looking work. Let us know how the range visit goes. I’m anxiously waiting for a P14 Fat Boy furniture set from Prestigous. I don’t think I’ll be disappointed.
Prestigious Wood Stocks in Alberta may be able help you out.

You should know that the Lee Enfield action and barrel is not just a drop-in stocking up process. If this furniture is new then there is a lot of fitting needed to get it...
Thanks to all of those fine folks that PMed me with leads and sources. With your help and my research I have located all of the parts I need for this refurbishment. I even located the correct bayonet...
Hi Folks,
I have a new winter project laid on. The rifle is a LSA 1901 Mk I*. MLE. I’m looking for:
- a nose cap
- barrel band
- bolt cover
Any leads would be helpful and much appreciated. I...
That's the plan. I will get past this shoot and look further into getting this whole thing sorted out.
I'm going to try The Eyepal. It was recommended by a Facebook group shooter. EyePal, An Iron Sight Shooters Friend It not expensive and I can get it in a timely manner.
I'm about to enter a fun shoot and I'm struggling to see the front sight blade clearly on my Mk III. I'm 62 years old and wear glasses. They are bi-focals and I think that that may be part of the...
The lathe is an earlier restoration project I took on last winter. It's a 1922 South Bend Model 25Y. It has a 9" swing and uses changes gears rather than a quick change gearbox to adjust feed rates...
I had the Mk. III to the range today and and its needs some foresight adjusting but I sure can't complain about the grouping. 6 rds in 1.5" @ 100 yds. Load data - Hornady 174 FMJ/BT on top of 38.6 gr...
Well, it's done. It came together pretty well and I'm happy with it. I won't post targets until I get it zeroed. I only had a few rounds through it today as a shake down. Nothing fell apart
Anyway,...
The stock came from Stuart at Enfield restorations in Saskatchewan. There was a generous amount of wood on the draws to work with - the more, the merrier.
Thanks for the tip Cinders. I don't have any SS wool but I do have good results using a brass "Curly Kate" pot scrubber.
95690Hi Gang,
I finally got some photos sorted out so here are some stocking up photos. I was able to score a reproduction walnut forend and a set of hand guards for this project. I will reuse the...
This is the shape that it's in now. The grips are a bit beat up but there is an inspector's mark on one of them (on the outside surface) so I'll keep them as they are. They got a coat of boiled...
I recently purchased this bayonet for what I think to be a good price and want to give it a sprucing up to go with my recently cleaned up 1912 Sht. LE.
Questions - would the metalwork on the...
Thanks for the info Peter. Thanks also for all of the info on the stocking up process and all of the other armourer's related info. I have a whole new level of respect for the person who did this in...
It won't have a cutoff or volley sights. My goal with this project is to have the rifle in the condition it would likely have been in when it was issued after its 1953 FTR. I think it got a new BSA...
Thanks for the info Roy. I have a cross screw that's in really good shape so I willuse it. From all I've researched and seen in person I know that there is no set in stone configuration and, as you...
Thanks Cinders. I will give the search function a shot. I used Peter's detail instructions for the stocking up process but this last part is a bit cloudy for me. I have to say that the stocking up...
I am in the final stages of bring a sporterized version of this rifle back to its full military condition. It had a FTR, maybe done by BSA, so I'm trying to keep this refurb true to that FTR....
