    Unsure if this is of any interest or not.......

    I have recently been sorting through forty-odd years of accumulated junk with a view to giving my wife a slightly less onerous task to deal with if I fall off my perch before she falls off hers. I have sorted out about two dozen SMLE (largely but not exclusively BSA 1920's & 1930's production) barreled actions with a view to selling them off into the trade for someone keener than I to rebuild/deactivate, (or whatever). Among them I found one which is the major parts of an Ishapore rifle, with, I suspect, not terribly common butt socket markings. Is it just worth no more than a bog standard 'Ishy' or is it worth sympathetically rebuilding in view of the markings?

    I would welcome people's views.
