Welcome aboard. Good to hear of a Lee Enfield being used for hunting. Which one is it? There were quite a few Long Toms around in South Africa once - I have one from South Africa that is sporterized beyond recognition almost, with a No4 barrel. It has a Musgrave butt stock and a home made fore-end. The butt stock was designed by the same man that designed the Musgrave Model 80 - my uncle.

Thank you for the warm welcome, mine is a Long Tom nr.4 sport. If you are related to the Musgrave family you are part of "gun royalty" in SA.
