    Thumbs up My first restoration, 1915 BSA transition No1 MkIII

    I am just finishing up on my first attempt at a restoration of a bubba'd No1 MkIII. The rifle is a 1915 BSA that I found out falls into the correct serial number range for a transition rifle. It lacks the magazine cut off and it is stamped a III not a III*. Kinda interesting anyhow!

    Before:



    After:
















    Louthepou helped me out lots on this one. I read Skennertonicon's lots while researching the rifle and each part I aquired, and asked lots of questions here and elsewhere. Thanks to everyone who helped me out with this project, it was a blast and can't wait to start on the next.
