Oh, I'm no expert on them. I own a couple, and have owned a few others in the past. I've sold a whole bunch of them over the past years, though. Tikirocker's a lot more of an "Enfield expert" than I am.

Yeah, so?

#1: You didn't mention if the original parts come with the gun or not.

#2: Even if the original parts do come with the gun, and someone puts them back on, all they have is a drilled & tapped Ishy .308. Assuming it headspaces tight, all the numbers match, and it has a stock that doesn't look like it's been gnawed on by angry beavers (like most Enfields that spent too much time in India) that's a $200-$250 gun all day long.

No need to be rude; all I did was wish you luck. Oh, and don't forget Rule #3, which you agreed to when you signed up here at The Firing Line:
