libs Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Are the mags altered in such a way that you can't drop 2 or 3 cartridges down into them? Very strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeh Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Are the mags altered in such a way that you can't drop 2 or 3 cartridges down into them? Very strange. Yes, the gun conversion is done by simply boring out the barrels to accept the .410 cartridge rather than their native .303, but the magazine won't feed .410's without modification, further to this point with modification they'd accept way over 2+1 without then further modification to reduce the magazine size so they'd be on SGC rather than FAC, so many just had the magazine welded shut. I've seen one Enfield that would cycle .410 but the chap who modified it said it was a such a pain he wouldn't do it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.I.A Posted October 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 The above is true you can buy 2+1 versions but they just won't feed a 410 without a fair amount of work, so quite pointless really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.I.A Posted October 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 i had a look last night .not many vids on the No4 410 on youtube , I cant find any, only some of a SMLE but that even had a wooden block where the mag once lived, seen a few no4's done this way...

Vince Green Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 .410 cartridges don't feed that well in autos and pumps either. They are just the wrong shape. A few people had .410 section 1 semi autos firing slugs and it was thought for a while there may be an action competition devised for them, but the feeding problems thwarted it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 I used to feed mine with 303 cases fire formed to the new 410 chamber worked well would have thought it would be easier to mod the magazine to take these as well. Gutted I sold it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
