I recently came across a decent p14 sort of converted into a sporter - full military metal with the stock cut down. My question is what do think of taking the rear sight ears down to a single bridge, Mauser style? It looks ideal for that sort of transformation.
Any members ever come across / have one done this way. Some pics / comments would be appreciated. --- John
 
 This is my Model 720 Remington which my Father purchased in Alaska just out of high school in 1942 .It made the inside passage trip with him to join the Marine Corps that year . The Remington 720 is based on the Enfield P17 action. Remington only made about 1000 of these rifles. This rifle has accounted for everything from Kodiak Bear to Rocky Mountain goat to Whitetail deer literally hundreds of head of big game. I consider this rifle as good as or better than any ever made including the pre 64 Model 70 Winchesters which I have had a few of. Enfields are very strong and reliable actions and Holland and Holland made Afrikan sporters on P14 and P17 actions
 s on this action.
