Wonderful old rifle you have there mckinney!
I love those old "Enfield" sporters, the Remington 30 I believe was the best in that you didn't have to modify a p14 or M17 to have that huge action to play with in whatever calibre that you preferred to rebarrel to.
Lucky bugger, but no I'd keep this one as is, it would be a crime to redo this old girl now.
Absolutely wonderful to see one in frankly very good nick - very jealous indeed!
Cheers
many thanks 9.3
I also love these old rifles, including the factory Remington 30 and 30-S. (Still searching for a 30-S in .35 Remington:)
I agree about not redoing it. I've finally come around to the view that redoing these old rifles is almost never a good idea (after having had a few professionally redone). I'd like to get that missing chip of wood around the tang/safety repaired though.
