Lee Enfield barrel swap?

[Joel]

Hi Milsurp gurus,

Would an Ishapore no2 barrel fit on a No4 action?

Not gonna bubba a rifle, the barrel and actions are sold seprately

No, the extractor cuts will be 180 degrees out. I don't know about the threads. They probably are different, not sure. A No1 barrel WILL screw into a Martini action.

Thanks John....and interesting location, I have some family/friends there.

From what I know threads will work but as John points out will index 180 deg out
