   ive not shot it in a good while , i forgot how much fun that single shot was and how accurate , i was using irons , the peep rear , my old eyes dont like that much but i really like it in original form , u had a scope on it a long time back [no physical alterations were made] but i returned it to original after a year , ut just didnt seem right on that rifle , 
anyway , i had a few folks commenting on its full wood without knowing what they were looking at , when i explained it most had no idea the canadians had training rifles in the war , a few didnt even know we did ...........i forget there are those that know very little of marshal arms shy of an M1garand or an AR style .....i purposely didnt say M16 because i had both my '68 M16 and my springfield M1A [M14 type ] at the same tile and not many could say much about those either , next weekend it will be enfields that go to the range

	I have one also! By far my favourite rifle to shoot! I was able to pick up a "new in the box" peep sight for it, although it cost 1/2 the price of the rifle!
