Home Made Tooling for your Lee Enfield.

[muffett.2008]

Just a few of the bits I use.

1st. receiver clamp, 2nd. Omark barrel tool, 3rd mauser receiver wrench 4th. smle barrel wrench, 5th. enfield receiver wrench. 2nd pic. barrel vise/case former/ full lenght resizer.
I use a 10 ton jack, saves dicking around tightening bolts and swearing if the barrel slips, a barrel block is sitting on top of the press.

I have finally got a computer set up to post photo's. This one will not be getting the same security program that the others have, so if you buggers virus it, I will be rather peeved.

Hey Ned, still trying to make my life a misery, When you aquired sandbags full of 7.62 and 30 cal cases fired through those sloppy chambers, you need gear that won't break and leave you cursing.
I've never had a barrel spin either, cuts back on fixing f...ups.err.. mistakes.

What was that about "Live animals or Farm Produce"?????

Or was that "No rockets in my pockets, or brass up my ar....."?

" If you find any in your possession upon returning to the lines, hand it in immediately and no further action will be taken"......

I remember one occasion, after arriving back "in the lines" after a night shoot with F1 SMGs and subsequent "clearance declaration", picking spent 9mm cases out the the heavily lugged soles of the good old GP boots. You don't get that problem with .50 cal. cases.

Ned i use a 100t Hydro press because it is faster than the 10T jack press. I resize 303Brit to 243/303.
