Feets / Collection / My build The most Canadian gun in my collection.

A sporterized No1MkIII with homemade checkering and woodburned moose and deer. It's more Canadian than anything made by Diemaco.

the only reason why military ones are valuable now is BECAUSE most were sporterized, and the rest just scrapped. They were dime-a-dozen back then - there were MILLIONS of these guns after the war; they were almost entirely valueless. Nice sporter gear ADDED value to what was basically junk back then.
