Thread: 9mm Jungle Carbine / Lee Enfield Conversion

In my defence I didn't fit the cheek piece.
I am however working on another No5 mk1 in 9mm Luger in more "Delisle format" but all carbon fiber

I've got the No.4T cheek rest here ... But the Bradley Cheek Riser was on hand and expedient at the time.

I also got it in a parts bin very cheap so it cost me a grand total of approx $5

Got the 2nd No5 mk1 9mm to a working stage.. just a bunch of cosmetic finishing work to go..

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..
