A buddy of mine dropped this off. He got it from his grandpa who passed away a few years back. Came with a box that was addressed to the local armory here.
Before I spend too much time trying to figure it out, what model gun does this go to?
“Your stock is for a P-13 Enfield or a M-1917 US rifle with a shortened magazine to eliminate the dogleg in the trigger guard. I have a sporterized 1917 with the same stock, one that I picked up in a pawn shop near Memphis Tennessee. It has been rechambered to .300 H&H Magnum and uses the P-13 .303 Brit boltface, which was a popular conversion back in the 1950's and 60's.”
My friend found the gun in his safe that the stock was bought for. Wants me to give him a fair price on it. I have no clue on Enfield values as they seem to be all over the board. Serial number is in the 22x,xxx’s. Remington made I believe. Any thoughts on value?
The item mounted on the left is made by Pachmayr. I am assuming it is for a scope mount. The front sight says Redfield on it. Kind of a neat collection of old school parts, though they detract from its value I assume.
