[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2729006, member: 109862"] Oh if I had an m1 you bet I’d never part with it haha. My friend is still kicking himself over selling his old UNADULTERATED military rifle, a mint condition enfield .303. Full wood stock, still had the bayonet, everything. They’re very common in Canada but not like this - every idiot with power tools or a file had to “sporterize” these formerly dignified and grimly serious pieces of hardware, and most were not gunsmiths by a mile and it shows. I’ve seen some real hack jobs that would just about make a man weep 🤣. Why would you do that to this rifle!? What did it ever do to you!?!? I saw a video where they poked some well deserved fun at .303 owners. “If your favourite cartridge is .303 British, your gun maintenance kit is a roll of electrical tape, a flat head screw driver, a can of wd40, and a rusty bastard file. No one with a beautiful wood stocked rifle should let you within a mile of it as the urge to take a dremel to it will be irresistible. And you’re probably Canadian or Australian” [/QUOTE]
