Rod woods custom guns does what is probably the most authentic replica in the world
DELISLE CARBINE 45 ACP.Copy | Trade Me
Just over a week too late. I have seen some pop up every now and then. But i can understand if you want to build your own
That brings up the good question as to what your after?
A correct replica for a collector(aprox $2800 "new") or a suppressed .45apc bolt gun?($500-$2000) as I have seen some very nice modern takes on the idea
I know a guy who builds them from time to time. But, buy the time you supply a 303 action, 45 cal barrel blank, a 1911 magazine and pay for the build, its quite expensive.
How much do you want to spend?
Its not unusual for there to be 1 in auction in Wellington.
Like the guys have said , to get a accurate repro , it will cost you a fair bit , not so much for a less accurate copy , most I have seen are not very well done , unless you MUST have a exact copy , I would look at a more modern option , ie the Ruger bolt action rifle in either 357 or 44 , and while both feed & eject well , the barrels ae not ideal to run heavy bullets , if you want to run say 250gr in the 357 or 300gr in the 44 , then most will reccomend a faster twist barrel than what Ruger put on these little bolt actions .
Also the Delisle is really a iron sight only rifle if you want to keep its original lines .
For the money you would spend on a Delisle build , I would put in a Ruger 357 , use a faster twist custom barrel , run 250gr bullets out of 38spl cases , and have a custom locking can made for it , scope it & maybe a folding stock as well .

cheers guys i really love the lee enfield action so would want to stick with that. do you think its possible to get one for around the 1k mark?
If you wait you should be able to find .45apc built on a Enfeild for under a grand-it may be a back yard job so probably would want to test fire/cycle before handing over cash.
I recommend sending ruger a pm
I still make de Lisles to order. Send me a PM for details.Quote:
