That's what I did, turned my Lee Enfield actioned 410 into a faux No 6 'jungle carbine' 22lr trainer.saddler wrote:...or use an otherwise butchered donor action/bolt to build into something else.
My 410 No.4 (S.2) will hopefully in the future at some stage become a .45ACP DeLisle (21stC upgrade though; not copying some of the poor components/features of the original)
My 6.5x55 M96 shotgun - no planned projects for it - may have a .22 barrel liner fitted & use it as a trainer
My 7.62 M91 VKT shotgun (S.1) - that will stay as is

Yeah fair enough, but I did post pictures when I first got it in here - http://www.full-bore.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=65&t=20962ovenpaa wrote:Sandgroper wrote:That's what I did, turned my Lee Enfield actioned 410 into a faux No 6 'jungle carbine' 22lr trainer.
Edit: Could be fun to change it to a 22WMR or 22 Hornet!
