I know this is probably more appropriately directed to our other colonial commonwealth brothers. As the 303 British is not the most popular caliber in the US. But I was wondering if anyone had any great examples of SMLES made into beautiful hunting rifles between or after the wars. So, let's see some custom old war rifles.


(Also, I have an Australian Lithgow SMLE that someone butchered, and I want to make it respectably nice.)

Can only tell it has a SMLE MKIII rear sight & barrel.

As says @Bob Nelson 35Whelen the Butt socket would tells us more if it is a military action ?
