    Parker Hale 300 Win Magnum, refurbed

    Hi folks,

    this isn't something too common in my shop, but a Parker Hale chambered in 300 WSM ended up here. It needed a new butt pad and refinishing of the stock. (varnish was flaking off, and some exposed wood showed early signs of mildew or discoloration).

    Cleaning the varnish was quite a task, the usual "soft" varnish remover didn't work, so I needed something more on the "industrial strength" side of things. Patience was needed, especially to clean the checkering.



    Fitting the butt pad is something I enjoy doing; somewhat of a new skill to be acquired for me, but I enjoy it.



    A little lindeed oil later (a few coats), and a really good cleaning of all the parts, she went to a new happy owner.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
