got Enfield 2A
« on: October 28, 2007, 03:18:38 PM »
I was very happy with my new "shooter grade" Ishapore Enfield.  AIM has some left at $100.  I took some bad pictures with a borrowed digital camera (don't drop your camera........).




I am planning on taking it completely down to clean.  Hoping that I can just clean the wood instead of refinishing.  I want to keep the arsenal rack number "24" on the side.  Trying to find someone to fabricate a 6x6x40 stainless tank to do a home parkerizing job. 

The wood has splices in it, but they are well fitted.  The color of the wood is almost gold in places.  I think that most of the darker wood is, in fact, just dirty.  This is going to be project rifle so I am completely satisfied.

I think you got the best deal in AIM's latest flyer.  Keep us posted as to how it shoots.  My K-31s have spoiled me.... accuracy-wise in the mil-surp department.
