Heck, Hawg, don't tell me about it, I did it. Not, I admit, as well as whoever did that rifle, but most guys didn't want (and didn't want to pay for) that level of work. But yep, I sawed the ears off Model 1917 Enfields, drilled and tapped Mausers and Springfields (03A3's are harder than heck), hacked up a bunch of Spanish and Swedish Mausers. Rebarrelled, crowned, replaced sights, turned down bolts, etc., etc.
