Lee Enfield help please.
03/01/12 02:28 PM

I am looking for a new project and am thinking of building a hunting rifle based on a Lee Speed action. Not for any particular reason other than I just feel the need to have one.

Now I have very little (almost none) knowledge about Lee Enfield or their derivatives, hence this post. I have searched the net looking for what ever info I could find but now need some expert assistance.

After ringing a friend I was shown an action which just might be what I am after and was seeking some info about that particular action. Any info would be appreciated. History etc.

I have posted some photos of the action which I think will assist.

The main marking is E.R. BSA Co. 1902 LE 1 *.

Bolt and action serial numbers match.

There is also a spare bolt which has a safety catch incorporated. I assume that this bolt is from a later production?

Can anyone assist with some information please? Any suggestions re suitability of action for project.
