Friends-

I have a rifle project in the works on a Remington 1917 action. When I purchased the action, it came with either Springfield bottom metal or someone had already straighted the "dog-leg."

My question is this; what other bottom metal options exist for Enfields like Sunny Hill, Blackburn, etc. I saw an Enfield on Rick Freudenberg's web-site and the trigger guard had a nice release button like a Blackburn et al?

Are there some aftermarket sources for bottom metal out there for Enfields.

Thanks in advance.

A few years back Rifle magazine printed an article about a 1917 Engfield that had been extensively customized by Ted Blackburn, and wore one of his triggerguard/magazines. So I am sure Blackburns would be a great place to try.

Their website is http://www.blackburnmachine.com/index.html

Thanks for the information. I called Ted and said that once upon a time he build bottom metal assemblies for Enfields but, not in recent years and in fact sold what few parts he had to a gentleman several months ago.

Any other thoughts?
