I am having a stock made for my mauser and would like to have an english express rifle or maybe a type a mauser style of stock Would anyone be willing to post some pictures of there bolt action rifles with English style stocks?

How about a Rigby 416 and Jeffery 404






How English do you want them ?

Thanks for posting the photos of those very fine looking rifles.

For reasons that I can't effectively articulate the Lee sporters have always "done" something for me.

I have handled only one in my life - like the top one in your photo it had a solid rib barrel and was similarly stocked.

The gun dealer I was doing some work for at that time didn't know what it was and I certainly didn't either but we both thought it was cool.

It wasn't until years later when I ran across an article about Frederick Burnham that I remembered handling what I'd assumed at the time was just a Mk III that someone had hot-rodded.

Little did I know....

All the best to you and yours in 2014 and thanks again.

From what I have seen I guess Bell used a Lee Speed on a great number of the elephants he killed as well.

I've never seen a Lee Speed but wanted one for years. Would go well with my NRA sporter, which is a tack driver.

thanks for the pics I was looking for something with the long pistol grip, short forearm, drop at the heel, slender wood, preferably with a drop box magazine.
thanks again for sharing

Gorgeous gun; what a classic.

Phil, the Jeffery makes me wet�.

my 300 H&H that Bijou Creek made for my on a VZ-24 action.

Very nice! It would be a shame not to hunt that rifle.

Yea Jon, why haven't you brought that up here to hunt ? Luke would carry it for you.

Those Imperials are so elegant. The Jeffreys is tops.

He had a matched pair of .303s but frankly I never knew if they were Lee speeds or not. Knowing what little I know about him from his books, I'll bet they were pretty skookum, whatever they were...

Stock was unfinished and the forend a touch long, but has the classic english lines.

Lines look great. Forend could be easily fixed with a rasp and then a barrel band sling swivel�.


It has the right only color pad!

That .404 is just about perfect. What a fantastic looking rifle.

The pistol grip on the Dakota stocks are fairly English in style.

American.

Some very nice rifles. Thanks for this thread and the pictures!

An as sold BRNO 375 H&H that Carlos added a properly shaped ebony tip to.

The is my favourite, would love to own one one day!
