A heavy 26 inch barrel and a 6mm Remington chamber turn this Eddystone Model 1917 from a war rifle into a long-range target gun. The seller lists it as a U.S. Enfield Eddystone 1917, used, built in 1918, with a bolt action and a four round capacity.

The M1917 was built by Eddystone, Winchester and Remington for the United States in World War I, based on the British pattern 1914 rifle. Its action is large and strong, with a bolt that locks well and a rear aperture sight. Those features make it a favorite base for custom rifles, since the action can handle strong loads.

A 6mm Remington round is a flat-shooting cartridge that does well on varmints and deer. With a heavy barrel, recoil is light and the rifle holds its aim. That suits a bench shooter, a varmint hunter or a person who likes experimenting with handloads.

Expect a custom rifle and not a collector's piece. Have the chamber, barrel and headspace checked by your dealer or a gunsmith.

It is sold as described. It ships to a licensed dealer you choose, and the background check takes place there.
