I picked up several Old  non working rifles over my 38 years  As a GUIDE;  All in the TUNDRA.. :)  Last "FOUND " rifle  Was a .22 I Found Between LATIMAR Lake and SNOWBIRD Lake.. which I will offer 4 sale LATER..   HERE; we have a 303 British Lee Enfield.. and  You can see in the Pics; its a 1921 Model.. That In Itself is NOT so Uncommon; as they were mass produced.. This one I Found on an ISLAND on an overgrown Bush trail That Led to a very dilapidated Trappers cabin.. On WHOLDAIA LAKE. The cabin looked to have been unused at least 30 years all Caved in and rotted..  This Rifle was Just off the overgrown  "TRAIL" it was leaned against a rather LARGE ( For the area ) Black spruce. The Butt end perched on one of the larger above ground Roots; The MUZZLE  was Grown "around" embedding it about 3/4 of an inch into the tree..After I  worked it Out from  the spot; where Someone had Left or forgotten it; I found it was all seized solid.. I took it back to camp; band applied half a can of Good ole WD..40..The Magazine was removable a couple days later; 10 shot clip with three live rounds intact ??.    B4 end of season I was Able to work the Bolt loose and RAM out a spent shell from the chamber.. I Wonder what stories this rifle Kept to itself.. Look at That Bridge sight; Or Where it SHOULD Be;  Someone had Filed - hammered the end of a rifle casing in there for a SIGHT - Picture # 7 ..??.  The fore stock had a Piece of what looked Like INNER TUBE rubber; wrapped around it ..It was  very Sun rotted and fell off when I touched it... I Think If It were in the right hands; This one Would be USEFUL Again ??   Clip is of course inc..   Its Open to offers; BEST offer Talks Loudest,,  :)  Please No TEXTS Messasge HERE; FIRST !
