Before I commit to making a bunch of No-Go gauges to sell to the Enfield public, I first have to make sure that they are as they should be. I have two different digital calipers and so far,so good. They will be very similar to the Forster Field Gauge and can be slipped under the extractor and slid into the chamber just like a cartridge. The Forster gauge is the one on the left and homemade on the right. If you end up with one of these,please allow for a +- of .001" or .002". My calipers may vary in readings then yours. I have made three so far and they all read .074".

Once I get this setup to go, I will make 25 of them . Those will be double checked before final finish.  Then I will pm each one of you...

Aughh, I ordered a Field gage last week off Amazon!  

I like the recess cut just above the rim.

I would be very interested in one !!
The only time I ever said "no" to a drink was when I misunderstood the question.

This is the finalized version,the one on the right. They will all not look like the last one made as well. Each one will also have to be allowed a plus or minus of .001"-.002" over or under the nominal .074"
As far as a price? I do not know as of yet.
