Rare Bucket List Item Located
Well, after years of searching I finally found and purchased an original .22 cumm .303 conveyor! Unfortunately it is an only child, I would love for ten and be happy with five, but one will have to do for now. Hope to get it to the range soon and try it out.

A local prototype shop should be able to run a number of them for you and you could sell the excess.

How would these tools work/how can the cartridge be disassembled?

Neat scarce rare item. We've seen them here before but not recently. Wonder how many there were made and where they all went?

Well done! It's on my list too, so I'm quite jealous!

Thank you, I was not aware the bolt head had a new out-of-center firing pin. I was thinking this cartridge might work identical to the Hoffer-Thompson cartridge for the M1903 Springfield where the normal firing pin was used, but an adaptor at the rear of the Hoffer-Thompson cartridge acted as re-directing part for the firing pin.

I have two of those Enfield adapters. I use them in a standard no. 5 carbine, with a standard bolt head. The adapter converts the center fire strike to rim fire, as in the Hoffer - Thompson. I guess the bullets just rattle down the .303 barrel.

chamber insert for 32 ACP and 32 S&W
I like the chamber insert for 32 ACP and 32 S&W, excellent for short ranges and a low report when used outside. Either jacket or lead bullets are accurate. Also nice if you have a basement range tooAttachment 102155Attachment 102156

I’ve owned two of the rifles they were designed to be used with, over the years, although both had been smootbored for the UK
market. Wish I’d kept them & retro fitted rifled barrels once more!
Such is life.....
