Thread: Magazine rebuild for 303 Lee enfield action

I am finally in the home-stretch with my new magazine build for my Lee Enfield No 4 Mark 1 that was converted to 308

I used the exact same shape of the original 303 magazine and cut and shaped my new one for double-stack single feed (5 round capacity)

As you will see on the pics so far, I need to do a lot of "cosmetic" finishing here and there, but as of right now, I have a magazine that cost me only time and effort to get to this stage.

I used 0.8mm stainless steel for the case, plastic shelving footpad for the feeder, and steel strapping for my spring.

I will be doing another magazine with a 1,2mm stainless steel and more refinement based on this design, and hope to show you that project soon.

I attached some pics and await any advice on what I can do to improve.

Kind Regards

Leonardo
