OK, not sure if anyone is interested or not but I thought I'd post this up and see if it floats!
I have a 1944 .303 British Lee-Enfield that belonged to my dad. He used it for hunting and I believe it was "sporterized" before he bought it. It shoots nice and I intend to keep it for my own use. That being said, I have no inclination to restore it to its original historic condition and I would actually like to replace the stock/butt of it and to even mount a scope. I picked this pic up on another forum and although this is not the look I am going for (I like wood grain) it does have some of the design elements I'd like to achieve. I've also included some pics of mine in its "as is" condition and the beginnings of my dis-assembly. Thoughts, ideas, suggestions and even criticisms are encouraged!
