Rhineland Enfield and Mauser Conversions to .45 ACP

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.
 
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/mauser-45-acp-military-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.

Yes please. Please email tysonl@wolverinesupplies.com for further communications. Thank you!
 
Might have to pick up another Swedish Mauser just to try this out.

I did up a Swede Mauser unit back in the 80's as a single shot using a Pac-Nor 18" barrel fitted by guntech in the traditional way. No barrel nut.
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.
