    Meet My Money Pits

    Attached are pics of Winston and Maggie, I'll let everyone figure out which name goes with which rifle. The L1A1 is (believe it or not) a Century Arms build. It's on a very nice receiver that's unmarked, from the quality and machining I believe it's an Imbel that's unmarked. I've shot close to 800 rounds through it and have never had any trouble that wasn't my fault. The original parts are all from 1959 or 60 and all came from Birmingham rifles. I honestly lucked up big time to get such a slick functioning rifle from the home of garbage guns but I did.

    The Lee Enfield is obviously a No.4 mk.2 1955 vintage unfired after it left the factory. I do intend on firing it when time permits me to do so properly instead of just popping of a few rounds.

    I bought both for a total of $450.00 and feel like I did very well with both. I actually bought the Enfield to meet the timeline of Britishicon service rifles.
