I posted this on CGN and member Gibbs505 suggested I try Milsurps.com.
A retired smith who had sold me a bunch of Enfield parts last winter called me back and offered me his Enfield gages and tools. I purchased them so here's a pic.
From left to right.
Top row: Oiler, crowning tool, firing pin protrusion gage.
Middle row: Go/No-go chamber gages, bore gauges, bore condemnation and throat erosion gages.
Bottom row: Body & barrel assembly gages, home made barrel wrench and barrel vise sleeves.
Note: Some of the tools are marked with the C broad arrow, others have a company names (C.Oxweld ?, Canadian Arsenals) and some have part numbers stamped or electro-penciled on them.
As for the crowning tool, does anyone here know how the armourer aligned it with the bore ? There is no "pilot" system on this tool, was there another part that fit over the barrel and aligned the bore ? Can anyone here tell me how the crown repair cutter was operated ?
And how do you use the two bore gages (.308 & .310 in the middle of the picture) ?
