I've owned a custom built hunting rifle based on a Remington Pattern 17 Enfield for about 40 years now. It's fitted with a Douglas Premium .30-06 barrel and custom stocked. I purchased it from an elderly gentleman at a local gun show back in the early 1980's and it's been customized enough that the only sign of what it was is the safety, and the rollstamp I found on the receiver ring under the scope base.
Haven't fired it or taken it out of the safe in probably 15 years now, but I'll likely never part with it. I guess I need to take it to the range and fire it one of these days!
