My order from the Hunter's Lodge finally arrived! Let's unbox it and see what I got! 

Hilarious, yet so true. Thanks for the laugh. (He probably takes an hour to get dressed, too.)

Oh, sorry it wasn’t fast enough for you, opening a box isn’t going to be as fast as your sex life pal so maybe you should stick to watching porn and your right hand if you want expediency.

No doubt, I fast forwarded through the entire video and it still sucked. Crappy presentation, crappy camera angle, crappy meandering dialog. Putting this clown on the DNR list😂

😂😂😂😂 sometimes I the Internet is worth logging on 😂

​@@milsurpmagazine9515 rude.

That would've been what you paid in the USA until a few years ago. Combat video games and the millennial generation of young men have made the military surplus market go completely bonkers.

I concur down here that would be a parts rifle at best

Lots of lightened bolts were produced for No 4s, from BSA Shirley from memory, although the striker is wrong.

Junk😂😢

Good to know thanks!! I do have an m16 Spanish carbine that I love so I may get a m43 from them.

@Lock Stock & Barrel Hmm, I kind of went into it knowing I would have to order parts but I didn’t think it would be that stripped down. Oh well I think after I get it all put together I won’t be buried in it, it will be fun project.

@@milsurpmagazine9515 Try Liberty 🗽 🌲 Tree Parts in Maine. They will have EVERYTHING you need. I’m restoring a bunch of those #4 MK 1s and MK 1/2s. So… on the round cocking piece Vs. flat style… the round design was a Pre-War Style that took a lot of complicated machining and tooling to create. The flat style cocking piece was last prone to snag, and required less complex machining and tooling to complete. The design allowed for simpler tooling, less machine steps, easy production for less trained/ skilled workers and was a Wartime Expediency Production style. Longbranch was Canadian and they shared parts with Savage Arms in America and Canada back and forth. The early round style cocking pieces got used up in Production mostly around 1942… but are sometimes seen in Production as late as 1943 when more Stocks of Parts were rediscovered and put to use. Savage Early Production was the same. Savage parts are marked with an S. My Father was a Union Man and Essential War Worker who helped set up the Savage Arms Factory #4 Line for U.S. Property/ Lend Lease Production Enfields in Utica, New York. He went back and forth between Longbranch ‘s Canadian and the Savage American and Canadian Factories helping to get the Production Lines up and running. Both Longbranch and Savage shared their excess parts during the War. Around 1944 Savage ended their Production Run and delivered the remaining Parts to Longbranch for manufacture into Firearms. Several of my earliest Production Savage Enfields have the round cocking piece. They are interchangeable with the flat ones. Worn round style cocking pieces were replaced in the Field or Arsenal Factory Rebuilds ( FRRs) with the newer flat style piece. The round head cocking pieces would turn up in box 📦 lots in Arsenal Stores even up into 1954 and were still being used if New Old Stock on Hand.

@@achillebelanger9546 That’s interesting, I wondered what the story was behind it, thanks much for the information! 👍

More to come!

Well if you want a complete gun and you want it fast then probably not, if you like a project and not afraid to wait a bit it’s not that bad.

Then don't....pretty pointless comment

@@corydunaway 🤡🤡🤡

Is a no.4bolt different than the no.1 bolt

@@Rambler1er-lz1eg yes, and the bolt head is completely different. Not interchangeable!

I have to see what I buy before I buy anything.

@@2pugman Always the best option when available. Some people are just born gamblers.

Argentina Mauser too

Amazon carries the gun hooks, just search gun hangers, they come in sets of two six or twelve I believe, they have a rubber protector on the inside of the hook. I spaced the butt end ones 7” apart and then eye balled the barrell ends based on how thick the hand guards were, it isn’t perfect but I like the way it turned out. The wood they hang on is just some old barn wood I found at a local sawmill I ripped in half and used tung oil on.

Yes I learned that when I got a postcard in the mail stating I owed them 16.50 more in shipping and that was after I had inquired for a shipping quote to my location before I made the order.

@@milsurpmagazine9515 Same here for my second Spanish M-1916 shorty.

Hunter's lodge has a bad reputation. They can keep their incomplete relics.

Um, I paid over $120 to ship a batch of three rifles less than 500 miles which seems high especially considering that they never actually sent them. Maybe I just need to wait longer but four months seems like it should do it.

Yep just send your money and wait.

Yep, my suspicion is they assemble them from parts bins. It’s a fun shooter albeit mismatched, I’m happy with it.

You know what they say… one man’s trash…. And usually the one calling it trash doesn’t know shit.

Nope. Late No. 4 or possibly No. 5 bolt, with an early Savage cocking piece.

I know, I even changed it and got it wrong, dislexia kicking in. 🙄

Except try to buy one complete and a decent shooter on gun broker for $200 any more these days. Those prices went away years ago.

It’s a shooter, you can check out the finished product in the shooting video on this channel. It turned out darn well.

No.4 mk1

You just send them a handwritten order with a check for the rifles and about $60 for shipping and wait. You will get your order after a few months wait. James is the only one I could reach when I had questions. Text him at the number in the ad.

That would be the Brittish 303 round.

Kinda like your wife when you’re trying to get her off huh?

Until you see the video where it shoots 3” inch groups then you feel like an ass for saying stupid crap.

Check out the range video, no head space issues and grouped fairly well.

Yet when I am finished with it it will probably look better and shoot better, and I will be in it for a lot less than some old pos rifle you haggled with bubba at the gun show over.😉

Talk about "a dry reaming"...

Lmao! Ya think huh? It’s together and shoots 3” groups for less than 400 bucks. Try and buy a decent shooter for that on Gunbroker sparky. 😂😉

Nah, it’s already together and I am in for less than $400. It shoots great. I’m happy. 👍

Yeah who wants 3” groups at 100yds? Total crap huh? 🤣😂🤣

Sorry I’m not as fast as most of your sexual experiences sparky next time maybe learn where the fast forward button is so you can get to the good stuff faster.

Lmao step off “mate”, ever heard of if ya got nothing to say just STFU? I rehabbed the gun and shot 3” groups and have less in it than what I can sell it for. That video is available if you care to watch it.

@@milsurpmagazine9515 if you can make money on it, good for you. Just wondering what the full cost was, because you can get a matching numbers job on this side of the pond for about $500, if you know the right bloke and have the right certificate. Which is a downside, I must admit. Still, if I lived in the US I wouldn't have any guns, as I would have had to sell them to cover my medical bills. One car crash can leave you all kinds of fucked up, especially when it was someone else's fault!

I guess you didn’t go on to watch the finished product and the three inch groups it shot huh? Save it.

Thanks!

Definitely don’t need useless comments, move along if you dislike the content.

Sorry it isn’t as fast as your sexual encounters.
