Yes very nice. The 1917, whats the red paint warn of?

[gsimmons]

Non-standard calibre, 30-06 as opposed to standard .303. They were issued to the home guard.

[JerryB08]

oh, I thought they had yellow and were painted loud and proud. That was my first rifle. only one my dad ever bought me and I sold it when I was 16 like an idiot. I will regret that the rest of my life, He's dead now... Wish I would have told him how much I liked it. Great rifle.

Anyone with an action lying around they want to part with M1917 30-06 Be happy to restore one. I didn't know until recently that after the war they cut the ears off and sold a ton of them to central America.
