Getting there, but I still think this is the absolute most hideous Enfield I've ever seen, Bubba'd or otherwise.

That would be unpleasant to shoot, the recoil would be excessive for certain.

As long as we're talking about unpleasant Enfields, surely this one takes the cake:

Oh wow, I didn't know they made Suncorite in those lovely colors! Is it called "Day Care Camo"?

Wow! Fluorescent Pink and Electric Blue! Those colours must give this rifle exceptional accuracy at 300 yards. Just imagine what a bullet must feel like as a flits down the barrel to it's target like Tiny Tim tip-toeing through the Tulips.
All this rifle needs to be finished is a Naked Goddess hood ornament with laser beams straddling the front sight, some B-17 Pinup Nose Art painted on the stock, a long cluster of Cubic Zirconium Gemstone Studs mounted along the fore-end, a Chrome Receiver, tassles on the trigger guard, and then we'd have a real, state-of-the-art, highly collectable, masterpiece. Can't wait to see this futuristic revival on GunBroker as the bidding climbs above Sniper Value.
OMG, let me pull out one of my Jungle Carbines and see if I can replicate this idea on a No.5! After that, perhaps an Ishapore .410 musket -- got to have a shot gun in this configuration too.
Bubba Will Live Forever!!! God Save the Queen!!!
P.S. If we can create such masterpieces on our Enfields, why not on Garands and Winchesters, and Mausers -- the possibilities are endless! Let's get started mates -- join the crowd and transform the universe!

Don't know bout accuracy but it would certainly be visible to at least 300 yards.

Sounds like a hippie's description of a bad acid trip.

Don't be harsh, there was a story to that rifle and a girl it was for.
