trentotter Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 I've got nine shotguns in the cabinets currently, plus rifle wise Rapid II FAC .22, .17 HMR, .222, .243 and .308; mothing terribly exciting there. I thought I would post my small British 20th century service rifle collection though - pictured with an imposter. SIG 522 .22 LR semi auto, L1A1 SLR, BSA manufactured, 1960, converted to straight pull single shot (so it is Section 1), with Walther .308 target barrel, and Enfield .303 No 4 Mk II, Fazakerley manufactured 1954: What is striking is that the year of manufacture of the Enfield .303 No 4 MK II and the SLR is just six years apart - just shows what a quantum leap the SLR was as a battle rifle whan it came into service 8) . The SLR lasted just two days before I did a bit of 'conversion' work =\\\\ Before the start: I wonder what happens if I take out this little screw here O.o ? And after....some will like it better before conversion, some will like it better after. Me? After, thankfully . i bet that bayonet comes in handy!! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave TS Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Beautiful SLR. It's a shame though it had to be butchered into a straight pull. I agree (although being biased i'd call it 'converted', not butchered).....but it's that, or nothing; and outwardly they look 99% the real thing.

Southern Shooter Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Here are my current two, the Beretta Silver Pigeon S Sporting 12 guage and the Stiller in 6mmBR. I love that calibre! Cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MogsAA Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 That Beretta Silver Pigeon looks like a really nice piece of kit, and the stock on Stiller is stunning is the fluted bolt standard (it looks a nice touch)? Safe shooting, MogsAA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Shooter Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 (edited) Hi Mogs, yeah the bolt is standard like that from Stiller. I also got the Stiller one piece scope base which I thought looked the goods. It's a great action to use. Cheers Dave Edited May 27, 2011 by Southern Shooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Shooter Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I forgot to say, the stock is a laminate job made by a well known maker who sadly died last week after a long battle with cancer. He is a big loss to shooters here as he was a true craftsman. Some of the shotgun stocks I have seen him make would be right at home on a Purdey.

Dave TS Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 sweeeeeeeet i love the slr (before ) what bayonet is on it? It's an L1A3 bayonet [nerd mode on] - a correct SLR bayonet, but they were modified with a recessed catch as the earlier versions could catch on the release catch and dump the bayonet on the floor [nerd mode off/] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
