I got the MilSurp itch and finally took a scratch.
I know a little bit about these rifles.
I just put one on layaway at a local pawn shop. This really shouldnt be a concern because I think I already know what it is.
The tag on the gun says its a 7mm.
Just so everyone knows nearly every gun in this shop is mismarked somehow. The Enfield above this one was sporterized and it said Mauser on the tag. So did the sporterized Arisaka next to it and last but not least the Remington 1903A3 had M1 Garand 308 on it. This was just on one section of the wall.
Well, I know these can be rechambered to 308 quite easily but I have never heard of one being officially done in any 7mm. Second is on the end of the barrel next to the importers mark (CIA) it says 303. So I think it is a 303.
Just looking for some positive feedback on my choice of rifles. It is in pretty good shape with a little bit of wiggle in the handguard which I understand is normal. Magazine has quite a bit of surface rust. Adjustable aperture sight is intact and works well. Pretty nice. Got it for 200 +Uncle Sams.
