Hey, I've got some stuff to share, I think you'll like it. I'm a British expat living in Wisconsin (go PAC go).
A really good friend got me into rebuilding demilitarized rifles sold as kits for rebuilding. He said as I was living in Wisconsin I needed a rifle, as I am British it should be a British rifle. He suggested an Enfiled mk1 or a Bren Gun...
Oh so I chose the Bren Gun of course... well two years later I had my first Bren Gun. Here is my third Bren Gun

Great hunting rifle for sure up in cheese head land

(BTW - I was at Super Bowl XLV in Dallas ) I won't make you more jealous by telling you were I sat....


Oh...great job on the rebuild. So it shoots now?

Hey lime welcome to the forum. Very nice Bren! My next advice is to become an American citizen and reactivate those babies. Then... Change your name to UK cousin v2.0.. Or... Forget everything I said and I still say nice Bren. Welcome aboard.

So next came a Sterling Mk4 kit.....


That's an R4 flash suppressor holding the Bayonet. The 16" barrel that makes it like a Mk6 is because of the regulations for short barrel rifles. SBR's need special licences, 16" barrels do not

She works, no problem. Striker fired, closed bolt.



Thanks for the Bren compliment

Next up, I bought an L1A1. this one is a bit mixed up, I bought it by accident after a few too many New Glarus. Came with plastic furniture and an Argentinian receiver! The Horror, the Horror. i machined the Receiver to look like a Britisher, an added the wood furniture, the found a SUIT.

So i dont suppose you'd be interested in my non-Enfield rebuild... an M53 SemiAuto. Now thats a Hunting Rifle, MAP!

Great video! And yes, the M53 would be a great hunting rifle but you would be picking lead out of your teeth with every bite you take!
