keep your eyes open, they come up here from time to time, but I'm a cheap bastard so unless its a great deal I won't bite.
I have a few now that I've restored and shoot, Savage rifles seem to be the most common, they should be put in beech, or birch.
Then the rest of the lot, Longbranch are nice but everyone wants to hold on to their little piece of Canada's war production, should be birch but beech and oak are also correct.
Maltby rifles are also fairly common and mostly with oak.
after that they get a little harder to find. Fazakerly and BSA.Co should also have oak.
Fazackerly did a lot of post war work and FTR's on all the different manufacturers rifles. I have 2 beautiful Savages that in in Beach that bopth went through FTR's in the early 50's, both converted to the Mk2 trigger (Mk1/3) and one was later converted to .308 part of the DCRA program
You really have to be carefull with enfields because it easily becomes an addiction, and you can never have enough of them.
But then I started a few years back seriously buying them up at auction for $25-$45 condition was not that important at those prices.
Now If you can find one for under $75 at auction your lucky, too many new collectors trying to catch up
Makes my pile of projects look a lot better now that I know they have doubbled or more in value, and I havn't done anything.
another problem out here is the dam registry, lots of farmers and whatnot have guns not registered and can't sell them leagally so they are just sitting on them. They won't hand them for nothing but don't want to tell too many people that they have them for fear that some do gooder will turn them in.
Keep your eyes open at gunshows too, sporter enfields are always present as well as parts and bits.
But research research research is important to make sure your not getting ripped off.
well thats enough of my ramblings
I feal like grampa simpson
well good luck with your projects
