    I could use a 1917 enfield stock set

    I would like to restore my 1917 Winchester enfield and am in need of an original stock set to take it back the way it was issued. Hoping someone has one collecting dust in a closet some where. I have a sporterized stock to rob the buttplate off if but need the metal font and clamp as well.

    One of the most endearing sights in the world is the vision of a naked good-looking woman leaving the bedroom to make breakfast. Bolivar Shagnasty (I believe that Lazarus Long also said it, but I can't find any record of it.)

    I dont know if Century International arms is still around,but a few years back I traded around and ended up with a p14 that they had sporterized,and rebarreled to 300 Win mag.They ditched the original stock,and replaced it with walnut.it looked like a Model 30,but it was an awfull gun.I dint know if they did it,but the thing was drilled and tapped completly out of line,and the threads were all enlarged,and stripped..I dont know what Century did with all the P14 stocks,but I assume they would either fit,or be easily made to fit.It may be grabbing at straws,but I guess you could try to contact them.

    I got a New unfinished set from Numrich 30yrs ago. Don't know what happened to my old set.
    I HATE auto-correct

    Happiness is a Warm GUN & more ammo to shoot in it.

    My Experience and My Opinion, are just that, Mine.

    I ended up finding a “W” marked Winchester stock off eBay this morning and they accepted my offer. It had a little wood deteriorated around where the buttplate mounts. I’m hoping I can swell the wood up in that area by soaking in water a few times and then lightly sanding it.

    It didn’t come with either the front or rear hand guards. Anyone have any extra hand guards laying around? Preferably W marked?

    I’m getting excited!
