Project Lee Enfield

[jack404]

A gent i know here has floored me with his customised Lee Enfield

no he did not cut up a original rifle but a sporterized one he got cheap

and i have a mongrelised one ( rifle built from many parts ) here that i dont mind becoming something better

[JLA]

Thats badass!

I love the enfield action. I used to have a #4 in .303.

Is that one .303 or .308?

[Shooter45]

Nice !!

[jack404]

.223 !

[JLA]

Holy smokes. even better. Bet it shoots well eh?

[jack404]

i'm gonna find out on the weekend

[JLA]

Is the stock duracoated wood or laid up fiberglass?

[jack404]

its abs plastic ( hollow ) coated with something i wont try to repeat

i've not seen it in person yet , he's just yesterday posted his build on the camp perry team page here ( i used to attend back when i could shoot mil rifle all day )

i checked the page and jumped on the phone , but i'll meet up with him at Malabar on the weekend ( ANZAC Rifle range and the home of the Australian mil rifle team )

i'm hoping he'll get full build details and suppliers up soon , but i'll get that and post here saterday evening

our web page http://www.aihpa.com/

Nice. I really like it. This is the sort of things I do with rifles. Thats reason for the curiosity of his choice of materials.

[JLA]

I am going to be building one of those tube guns like the Tikka on that website. Mine will be on a MAK tube gun kit with 5 round AI feed system and built with a rem 700 action and McGowen Rem-age barrel. Project gonna cost me prolly around $1500 US before optics.

[jack404]

hey me too materials and suppliers etc) but my land line here is terrible since the floods , snap crackle and pop way more than voices besides in person i can take pic's ask questions write it down and try it and know what it feels like , but knowing the gent , i doubt it would be bad , he's built it as a open class non scoped event shooter ..

$1500 !!!! do not come here you'll need to triple that

[JLA]

Why the 300% inflation?

Heck i thot 1500 was a little pricey for somethin Id be puttn together myself..

[JLA]

Heres the supplier Im gonna get my kit from. I have not decided if ill do an LA or an SA. Most likely SA in 7mm-08..

we have socialists and anti gun lobbies pushing to tax us out of our weapons

this too is the UN gun control plan and they be knocking on your door NOW!!

anyone pushing UN anti gun BS , SHOOT !!! twice in the head


(link) and thats not bad!! 7mm/08 , i've only seen stuff online about it no one here i know has that , better go read some more eh

[JLA]

I agree. Liberal bassturds.

So they didnt ban you guys altogether from owning guns, just severely restricted the types of weapons you can have and tax the crap out of you when you buy a new one???

[jack404]

We've fought back a long way from the dark days , the warrantless searches have stopped , but yeah the taxes , fee's, licence fee's, safes, security monitoring , security rental for storage ..

clubs have $50K-$60,000 insurance bills per annum , the only range accidents on record here are two idiot cops .. but thats the costs.. and as many ranges are on "public land" they get voted to be rezoned for housing or industrial with glee by many ..

when we started to buy our own land and set up then the anti started to protest us and BS about threats , but none got shot , a few OD'd one day but thats the idjit protesters buying bad dope

here we call it the rent a crowd very popular with the socialists
but they always seem to get the media onside ..

so we got the military to take over many ranges , bitch against the military here and folks wont listen to you no more , so we fight back and each year licence holders and gun sales grow

more clubs , more ranges , and now we have our own political party and 2 seats in the NSW state government

http://www.shootersandfishers.org.au/

socialists have 1 ...

and we have folks running for every state election as they come now ..

just a lot of effort but its paying off finally

Keep up the good work Jack.

[JLA]

very good. Im glad its lookin up. Keep folks rallied is hard work, and your a master at it.

Doubt is contagious, so is fear. Those 2 things alone if let go rampant are enough for the libs to get their way very quickly. And as you have posted above, once things are done they are very difficult to reverse.
