I 100% agree that military surplus rifles should not be sporterized nowadays but I don’t think it’s good to remilatrized old sporters either. 60 to 90 years ago some hunter put a lot of thought & time to take an inexpensive surplus rifle & customize it to put food on the table & making his own history into that rifle. Some the best hunting rifles ever are sporters. Thanks for this video.
If it's a quality sporter done by a fine gunsmith or tinkerer (think Griffin & Howe or Heym class of sporterization) then it's a fine sporter. If it can't be remilled, either do it justice as a sporter or as something modern and tactical. But every Bubba'd weapon that can be remilled in good condition or better should be remilled and used as it was intended to be used. No, Bubbas of today should stand clear of milsurps in good condition or better and go after the Bubba'd hot messes of the past and tinker with them. Plenty a 1917 Enfield comes to mind - if the ears are ground, you've found your project, Bubba.
