Grab your No5 "truck gun" shoot your way though all the Zombies till you reach the top right hand corner, all will be revealed.

I'm with you - thought you'd posted an anagram but that didnt fit so tried some logic - found it along with a pair of socks.

Just a thought on this thread, but just HOW do you bore a slightly out of round chamber. Maybe an out of round drill or even an out of round reamer perhaps.

Maybe someone ought to ask this question on 'that' forum

So does this mean DP rifles with holes drilled into the chambers, the DP actually means the rifle has Drain Pipes??

I saw yesterday on another forum.

So let us know which forum, so that we can tell them they're publishing technical gibberish.

Oh Peter, that's an easy one. You use the drill you normally use for square holes, but one size smaller than the number you first thought of!

Really guys, it easy to drill an oval hole, you just put the barrel in a vise, crank the C--P out of it, drill the hole, release the vise and Viola! oval hole.
There is a field expedient way also, you grind off 1/2 of one of the cutting edge of one side the drill bit, slip it into a pistol drill and go like the wind.

We are interested on this forum of milsurps.com in discussing the Lee Enfield Rifles, and sharing and improving our knowledge. We don't want this thread to turn into a commentary of other web-sites. Discussing the content of a post on another web site is fine, but please avoid commenting on the web site itself. Not that anyone here has done that so far, but it is easy to stray and that would simply not be "good form."

Thanks for your cooperation

NAUGHTY, NAUGHTY, you lot. But I'm willing to trade a reamer or two if you can guarantee it will create the drainage groove obviously required for the correct operation of LEE ENFIELDS in tropical conditions.

Point taken Amit, but maybe someone can ask the other forum the pertinent questions. But do iso in what Officer language would be termed 'demi-official' or 'diplomatically barbed'. That way, you put your point across but you leave a nice taste afterwards
