Wow! Some nice looking P14's or Model 1917's! I got to shoot my P14 for the first time yesterday. My poor reconstructed shoulder is not pleased...I shouldn't have gone prone...

1941 Long Branch N0.4 Mk1


I had to do a little work on thi one. Here is how that progressed. http://bobsstuffandnonsense.blogspot...branch-no.html

This one was not a military contract rifle. it was built by BSA for the commercial market and converted to a Target rifle by Fulton's some time in the late 20s. It is a BSA No.1 MkIII*.


Both rifles are currently fitted with Parker Hale aperture rear sights. The sights on the BSA No.1 are original to the rifle and were fitted by Fulton's when the rifle was new. The sights on the Long Branch No.4 were installed by me. Not a difficult proposition because they were designed to use existing bolt holes so no drilling and taping or permanent modifications of any kind were needed.

Savage No4Mk1* converted to 7.62 Nato with Canadian Arsenals Ltd 7.62 barrel and Sterling 7.62mm Conversion mag.

This is one of my dream rifles. Very nice.

My small milsurp collection.

First off, 1954 Springfield M1 Garand all matching, and 1943 Remington M1903A3 all matching. 1943 American Fork & Hoe bayonet on the 03A3 and Utica Cutlery bayonet on the Garand. Next is my low one million serial number Winchester M1 Carbine with a Greek Carbine bayonet. It's a typical post war mix master, but came with it's DCM paperwork. Next is my 1950 Long Branch Enfield No 4 Mk 1* that's all matching. Following that is my all matching AX 41 K98k Mauser, and my early Nagoya Type 99 Arisaka that's all matching. Last but not least is my Finnish Tikkakoski M27 Mosin Nagant, and my New England Westinghouse Finn capture Mosin Nagant.

I got tired of the horrible look the mosin stock came with so last week I decided to change its look. I stripped it and stained it with traditional cherry then coated with boilded Lin seed oil.
