Does the suppressor come off?
It is an integral eccentric suppressor designed to be permintly attached. It has an 6" long stainless 1:10"twist barrel with a ported break and 9 baffles with a gas stripper muzzle tube to shoot the heavy 147gr and 160gr subs.

Let the carbon fiber mess begin..
Keeping in with the theme of the design intent of both the delisle carbine and the No5 jungle carbine I'm making a "lightweight modern tip of the hat" to the fore mentioned carbines.
Not everyone's cup of tea, and I get that.. but let me assure the purists amoungst us that no restorable milsurp rifles were harmed in these builds. Both the no5 actions came to me in a box of enfield bits at a gun show and we're stripped of all parts with no bolts etc.
I have picked through no4 bolts that were beyond headspace tolerances and cut them short. The wooden furniture is all Bubba's handy work and in the scrap pile.
The only thing felt a little bad about was the lightened No5 bottom metal, but not bad enough not to use it..
