G'day folks,
I usually post over at the Lee-Enfield forum, as I'm a Lee man first and foremost. I've built up a bit of a collection of Lees, and I got the chance to go earlier. I've picked up an interesting Martini, and I might throw it open for suggestions or comments. It has different details on each side of the receiver. My thought is that it was built as a Mark II, converted to .303 and de-converted in later years by a collector.
I'm not complaining, as it cost me under $200 AUD.
In the deal came in interesting curio, this example of the most sought-after and valuable firearms to be found! Yes, I am kidding, I couldn't resist a Khyber receiver which was thrown in. As someone said on the Lee-Enfield forum, if I build up a sporter from this action, I'd better chamber it for elastic bands!
What ammo options are there in Australia?
Any comments, advice, suggestions or thoughts are most welcome.
Cheers,
Matt
