    Whoa folks! Grab a brain! The answers are out there on the website. I guess the oxygen left the room as soon as everyone read Rhinelander.
    Jean Charest after coming a distant second to Pierre Poilievre. “You deserve a clean slate and the opportunity to unite the membership. ... Only Liberals benefit from a divided (Conservative Party).” Will the malcontents listen?

    I don't think that company is around anymore. But this barrel is attached differently, We need to make a custom longer barrel nut.

    Cool, can you point me to where on the website the enfield kit is? Or the barrel length?

    First post.

    Or can google the company.

    http://www.troupsystems.com/product/...litary-barrel/

    The 45acp Kit Features a military profile barrel that is 16.5″ long and uses our quick barrel change system where no gun-smithing is needed.
    So yes some people fail to read, or do any research for themselves.

    If you guys are interesting in building up a display model I have the perfect stock for one. It’s an unknown folder project but seems to fit a No 1 mk3. Just needs the stock bolt cut down. It would make a cool bush gun. If your interested at all I would send it to you.

    Would be something of interest if you could get / find a CP chassis!
    And yes a AR barrel shroud that could possibly cover a fax silencer would be right up there for the COOL !!! factor.

    That bugger shot sweet with my cast boolit loads out past 100 yds. The front locking actions ain't ideal for use with the short, pistol length cartridges
    like the 45 ACP due to the big gap they have to jump on their way from the mag to the chamber.

    The rear locking Lee Enfield action is much better for reliable feeding from a 1911 type mag as there's a much shorter ride into the chamber when
    using adapter kits that have a bit of adjustment in 'em to get the feed angle proper for the mags ye want to use. Ye will still have a fair bit of tinkering
    to do as far as trigger, bedding, extractor reshaping & sight setup to suit the need.

    I did my one up using a Special Interest Arms kit from North Shore Barrels before they closed up shop.

    *LEAD* Still the best boolit material for huntin' & plinkin' for over 600 yrs.
    Shoot well & load better.
