P-14/17 Enfields

They are my FAVORITE action for a custom rifle build.

I have 6 Enfields in various cals and have given my sons several too. The last was given to my #2 son on graduating from college.

It was a in .338 Win Mag Bison bbl set in a McMillen stock with Canjar trigger, Dave Talley's bases and rings and a Leupold Vari X 3, 2X7 scope.
The action work was done by L&R Gunshop of Douglas, WY. & matt bluing by Glenrock Blue.

It is one sweet rifle!

hnter,

I like, and own, several P-14 and P-17 rifles and all are "As Issued." I have handled a few very fine custom conversions using both actions and they were a joy to handle. I hunt with my Enfields and the .303 or .30-06 will handle any game I pursue.
