    Enfield MkIV* .22

    I've just bought this cheep .22 MKIV, its the fist I've come across.

    It was just a basket case of bits but it was cheep.

    My questions are, what is needed to make this orignal? I've read the post on the .22s and i've got Skenertons book but i'm still unsure if it should have a special auxilary sight, empty mag etc. Its also been rebarreled to .303 at some point, probably by a civvy owner i guess.




    As you can see, most of the screws, the rear sight guard, the bolt head, the magazine and the butt are missing, should i rebuild to .303 or .22 spec?

    Oh, I also meant to ask if it was normal for a BSA 1917 action to have a cut off slot, but covered by the stock.

    ATB, Chris.
