Probably the same guy, he advertises several different conversions.

I’ve got a couple of the .32 sub caliber inserts for my .30-06s.

There's also a chamber insert to convert it to .32 pistol cartridges. |

JD, thanks for the information! I had never seen that device. Is it still available? I could not find the "Hammond Game Getter" web site, and most of the internet posts on it are several years old. If he is out of business I will add to my list of projects to tool up my old lathe to machine a whole set of adaptors, so the 10 round clip is full. This might also be a good tool to ease the transition of youngsters and my wife from a .22 to a serious bolt-action...

Welcome o the forum,Dr.Hillbilly.
As far as using the Enfield,for Turkey,etc. Try the "game Getter' adapter. I have one,and it uses .22 blanks to power a .32 cal. projectile. I've taken coyotes,at 40 yd,with it,and it's QUIETER,,and does good on turkeys,and squirrels,also! |

Sharpshooter, I do not know any Butchers last names. Surprisingly I haven’t spent much time in the Musqudobit area. I know there is some good Fishing and hunting there. Next time you come this way drop me a line, You can be my guest at our club for an afternoon of shooting.

Olddust, I am in Jacksonville, Al. about 20 miles north of I-20 on the east side of the state. I like to cost the coast now and again, have done several reenactments at Ft Gaines on Dauphine Island just south of Mobile. However I am more of a Mountain person myself.
Do you happen to know any Butchers in your area?

I live at the other end of the Appalachian Mountains in Alabama. Where in Nova Scotia are you from? My fathers family is from Upper Musquidoubout, specifically Butcher hill. It has been a long time since I was there, I dont even know if any family still ownes the old farm. I would love to get back up there for a visit and check out Oak Island. Eric |

Thank you sir, for your appreciation of the ladies who worked I munitions and other war work. Grandfather used big old American cars on the farm as well, mounting a hay-sweep to one, instead of the two horses. When he first built what became the Rice horse trailer, he loaded it with bags of sand, to the weight of two horses, and pulled by a Silver Dome Chrysler, booted it up the steepest hill in the area. (Ormesby bank) and was still doing 60 Mph. when he went over the top. It had twin independent axles, and rode Very smoothly. He also ran old Hudsons and Railtons. He liked big engines, and could make them sing.
