Just bought a Enfield pattern M1917 sporter in 30-06. It has the original 24" two groove barrel, nice shiny bore. It has a old-school (late 50's early 60's?) Weaver K4 on a one piece Redfield mount. Trigger is the original two-stage military. Trigger is just right.
The stock is a little bulky up front, the rear fits perfectly. Lines my eye up to the scope perfectly. Stock is an ugly red brown color. No dents or dings. Prime candidate for a strip and refinish.
Gun is built like a tank. Very good machining. Good smooth action. Better than my milsurp Mausers. The bluing is a bit worn. The bluing on the scope is a little worn as well. Looks like another winter restoration project.
Anyone have one of these? What do you think of them? Looks like a well built piece. Put down half yesterday. Pick it up on Friday.
Thanks
