    Lee-Enfield Firing Pin Tool

    Was getting ready to buy a Lee-Enfield firing pin tool and decided to search the forum. Found Hooked on History made one out of a 7/32 1/4" drive socket. Pretty cool, I'm going to do that. But I'll use a metric socket since its a Britishicon Rifle

    MILSURPS is a great place....

    Use a Imperial socket, only in recent history has metric been forced on us.
