Our version of the "DeLisle" .45 Carbine should also be available in
the spring of '08.
The tooling for it is more complex than the standard model above due to

Enfield
"K" in 7.62x39!
By Special
Interest Arms.
The classic #4 &
#5 Enfield's have been updated to shoot the
inexpensive and accurate 7.62x39 cartridge!
The converted gun
uses interchangeable 5 and 10 round single
stack AK-47 detachable magazines!
No modifications to
the original Enfield receiver are required.
"K" for Kurtz *, the
7.62x39 round uses the same .311
diameter bullet as the original .303 British caliber, but with a
lighter 125
gr. bullet, in a shorter cartridge case.
Ideal for youth,
ladies and anyone else desiring a .30 cal.
rifle with light recoil!
Inexpensive to shoot,
plinking ammunition is typically only
about $3-$5 a box!
Soft point hunting
ammunition is readily available!
Reliable bolt action
design, conserves on ammunition cost and
promotes accuracy!
All Enfield #4 rifle
accessories remain fully compatible with
the new Enfield "K"!
The bolt action and
heavier barrel appear to greatly enhance
accuracy over that to be expected from SKS or AK-47 type rifles!
Four standard types
available!

We are not
taking new orders
for "K" conversions until about we get our CNC mill working, in order
to catch up
prior
orders.
We are not taking orders for "K" conversion kits or
guns until we catch up our existing orders for fully built guns, and
finalize
new, faster, production technique's for our key components.
To that end we have acquired a CNC mill and EDM machine.
The EDM is now working, the CNC Mill should be soon.
We have created a "Kit" to allow
any local gunsmith to
complete your "K" conversion.
This is a new option for supplying our Enfield "K" to customers. We
believe that your gunsmith should be able to complete a "K"
conversion in about 2-2.5 hours, not including refinishing the wood or
metal
parts.
It is our hope that making the "K" available in kit form will
allow us to meet our customer's demands in a timely manner while still
making a
fair profit.
This will also provide the nation's gunsmith's with
additional
work, spreading the wealth and creating more employment in the U.S.A.
We are
NOT exporters, we do not export the
"K" kit.
DOD-ITAR has made the cost of becoming a licensed exporter
extremely high,
anyone wishing to import one of our kits will have to make arrangements
with a
licensed firearms parts import/export broker.
Please read the "FAQ" topics below for more details.
============================================
We have begun to use
black Delrin® in
place of aluminum for our magazine adapters!
We have also procured custom tooling to make them ourselves,
using
"old school" machinery, and saving thousands of dollars in tooling
cost.
This was critical to holding the line on our prices.
Our Enfield to AK
mag. adapters are the key piece required for our conversion.
We have completed a
couple of special
units, one threaded for use with a suppressor, one based on an Ishapore
2A
.308.
We will be happy to do more guns threaded for a suppressor, we will NOT
be
doing any more guns based on the Ishapore receiver!
Due
to popular demand we
are working on a couple of new stock variations.
In addition to
our new laminate
sporter stocks we are developing an adapter to fit any CAR-15 stock and
pistol
grip to an Enfield, the other is a version of the laminate stock with a
pistol
grip.
Due
to the intermittent
availability of magazines
and the need to be
profitable, we now ship guns with one magazine. Five round is standrd, ten round is
available by special order
subject to current
availability.
We recently got in a
few of the
correct ten round mags, five round mags are plentiful at the
moment.

An important note on
our e-mail.
It is
important that you put

"Enfield K", "Winchester 94", etc., so that we know it is
not SPAM.
·
Your
new Enfield
"K" kit's, how do they work?
· We have made a
couple of minor design
changes, which enable us to sell the "K" in kit form!
1. Instead
of one piece
billet aluminum magazine adapters we now use black Delrin®,
machined in two
halves. Now when the magazine adapters have to be individually fitted,
the
underlying material will remain black.
2. We
have made a small
change in the bolt and extractor system, which reduces the amount of
final
machining and fitting required.
3. We
are writing a
detailed instruction manual for "K" assembly.
We
recommend the
"K" be assembled by a qualified local gunsmith, but it is possible
for individuals to complete a successful conversion at home, so long as
they
take sufficient time and care in their work.
Kits are now available for immediate turn around!
·
Enfield
"K" kit sales, and completion?
·
The 7.62x39 bullet
is shorter than a
.303B, with less bore contact area, so a marginal or out of spec.
barrel cannot
be used successfully. Uneven results and a high scrap rate have led us
to make
new barrels a standard feature of our conversions.
Before ordering a conversion kit the buyer needs to remove the bolt
head and
trigger guard from their rifle for shipment to S.I.A.
We will not want the action or stock, this eliminates a lot of
paperwork and
shipping restrictions, as the components being shipped are no longer
"Firearms" and can be shipped via any common carrier or the U.S. post
office.
For all kits we will cut and re-thread the breech end of the new
barrel, then
"short-chamber**" it for 7.62x39.
·
We
are currently
experimenting with using a "barrel nut" similar to Savage ® so that
the conversion may be easier to head space for home builders. This
version is
still pending, and will not be available unless we are satisfied that
it meets
all of our standards.
We will modify the bolt head and trigger guard after we receive them
from the
customer.
The modified donor parts, new barrel, and a "K" magazine adapter
assembly with one WASR 5 or 10 round magazine will be sent to the
customer for
building into a complete "K" conversion.
Assembly
of the
"K" is very straightforward, but will require a couple of steps that
may be somewhat difficult for individuals who are not trained
gunsmith's.
1. Due
to inevitable minor
variances in Enfield actions we cannot fully head space the barrel and
bolt
before delivery to the customer.
Final head space has to be done after the barrel is trial fitted on the
buyers
original receiver.
This requires a 7.62x39 chamber reamer and head space gauges.
We will have these these tools available for rental, with a refundable
deposit
equal to their purchase price.
Gunsmith's may already have these tools on hand. If you are
planning to
do several "K" conversions these tools are readily available for
purchase from us.
2. The
extractor notch will
have to be cut in the chamber end of the barrel. This can be done on a
milling
machine, or by hand using a sharp square file.
3. The
magazine well in the
fore-end wood has to be relieved to make room for the front end of the
magazine
adapter. This is pretty easy with a Dremel® tool and burr or a
small wood rasp.
4. An
Enfield receiver vise
and barrel wrench are STRONGLY recommended for use in building the
"K". Poor quality improvised tooling can easily ruin the Enfield
action!
S.I.A. cannot
take
responsibility for any "K" conversions that we do not fully build, as
we have no control over the quality of work performed by others.
* There is no need to
send us your old barrel as we now
supply one of our air gauged Match Grade Montana Rifleman®
replacement barrels
as a standard component.
** "Short Chamber". The
chamber is cut close to the final
depth, but the final fine cuts need to be done after the barrel is test
fitted
to the original action in order to set the head space properly.
How do I get my old barrel off? It's REALLY stuck!
Seven
out of ten
Enfield barrels are extremely hard to remove, we find that the easiest
way to
get them off the action is as follows. If you do not have a lathe, a
local
machine shop or gunsmith can handle this for you at a nominal cost.
A. Strip
the action of the
stock, rear sight, and all small parts which might come loose while the
action
is spinning in a lathe.
B. Strip
the bolt assembly,
you will need a firing pin removal tool.
C. Insert
the bolt body
into the barreled action.
D. Mount
the barreled
action in a lathe with a "swing" of 9" or larger.
E. At
the receiver end
place the firing pin hole in the bolt body on a live center mounted in
the tail
stock.
F. Chuck
the barrel in a
self centering three jaw chuck.
G. At
very low speed
turn-off the barrel shoulder (Chamber area just in front of the
receiver) to
1" diameter using a thin blade parting tool. Wear safety glasses!
H. This
will relieve
pressure on the barrel shoulder and threads, the barrel should now
unscrew
easily.
Since the barrel shoulder has been machined back the barrel is now
scrap, and
will never be useable in .303 again.
·
Why
use the Enfield
No. 4 as a donor?
·
The
Enfield is
reasonably inexpensive as a donor gun, it has a strong and well proven
action,
and originally used the same bore diameter as our conversion. It also
has a
factory detachable magazine, so converting to our AK Mag. adapter is
relatively
simple.
·
Where
should I look
for an Enfield No. 4 to use for conversion?
·
The
Enfield No. 4
has been imported in large numbers over the last few decades. Many of
them can
be found already "sporterized" at gun shows, pawn shops, or garage
and estate sales. Recently imported guns are currently available from
several
wholesale outlets, but prices are rising and condition is often less
than
desired. Many gun shops will have a couple of Enfield No. 4's on hand,
try to
buy a gun you can examine in detail before purchase. Since you intend
to
replace the barrel you may get a gun cheap if it has a poor bore.
·
Why
not use another
gun, like a Mosin-Nagant or Persian Mauser?
·
Those
guns are more
difficult to do, and would end up being more expensive.
The
Mosin-Nagant has no
magazine well, the Mauser has a floor plate and internal magazine.
Besides, I
like Enfield's!
·
Aren't
you
destroying valuable collector guns?
·
No,
the guns to
convert have little or no collector value. They are usually sourced
from
foreign military surplus, they have been "FTR" and then sold to third
world countries by the shipload.
·
Why
is the converted
Enfield more accurate than an SKS or AK-47?
·
Mostly
due to the
bolt action, heavier and strait barrel (you should see an AK barrel
rotated
between centers, they are curved!), and careful setting of head space.
The
better fitting stocks do not hurt either.
·
What
made you decide
that there is a market for these guns?
·
We
had a retail gun
store, several customers came in looking for a bolt action rifle
in
7.62x39.
The only guns available were Ruger® and CZ® rifles,
with high retail
prices and fixed magazines.
·
These
prices
defeated the purpose of many of the customers, they wanted a gun that
was
inexpensive to buy, accurate, cheap to shoot, in a center fire caliber
suitable
for deer hunting, which also used detachable magazines.
·
Can
I change my gun
back to .303 British?
·
Not
easily. The
receiver is lightly modified, but the barrel would have to be
rechambered,
the bolt
head replaced, trigger guard alterations are permanent.
·
How
powerful is
7.62x39, how far can I shoot accurately with the converted gun?
·
The
7.62x39 is very
similar to 30-30 Winchester®, it is excellent on game up to deer
size, it is
very accurate to 150 yards, and reasonably accurate to 300 yards. It
will reach
much further, but hitting a target at long range will take more skill.
·
Can
I put a scope on
my Enfield K?
·
All
standard Enfield
accessories will work with the "K". We suggest a 2.5-8, 4X or 6X
scope in 32-40mm objective lens.
·
What
magazines fit
the Enfield K?
·
We
use the Romanian
AK single stack "WASR" mags. 5 and 10 rounds mags fit, due to the
varied size and quality of the mags some minor adjustment is sometimes
required. These mags are usually available for $15-$25 each.
·
It
has come to our
attention that there are two Romanian mag. designs on the market, the
correct
"WASR" mag. for the "K" is noticeably narrower at the front than the
main
body.
·
Why
not use the 30
rd. double stack AK mags, or a 100 rd. drum, that would be cool!
·
That
is possible, we
built one action with a 30 rd. mag. as an experiment.
. We were not
satisfied
with the amount of metal that had to be milled away for the magazine to
sit
high enough for reliable feeding.
·
Removing
so much
metal from the receiver potentially opens us to an unacceptable level
of
liability, some one could claim that we had weakened the receiver by
that
modification.
·
Many
states also
limit hunters to a 5 rd. magazines, others have bans on magazines
holding over
ten rounds.
·
Using
5 or 10 rd.
mags saves us from having to keep track of which states allow the mags
we want
to supply with each gun.
·
Are
you planning to
make the Enfield K in any other caliber's?
·
Not
really. Most
other caliber's use the wrong diameter bore, and there are plenty of
guns
available in those caliber's.
But if there is enough interest we may
look at a
.223 version of the "K", or 45-70 conversions.
·
What
scope mount
works best?
·
There
are several
scope mounts available, but most of the "No-Drill, No Tap"
mounts are not steady enough for our standards.
We recently tried out
an
"S&K" mount, finding it to be much better than several other
"instant" mounts, at a reasonable price.
·
The
"William's"® #71 scope mount screws directly to the receiver, it is
very solid, and allows the scope to be used as a "Quick Detachable"
type so that scopes may be interchanged, or iron sights may be used if
desired.
·
Is
the completed
conversion still a C&R gun?
·
Under
our
understanding of the law it is not.

My personal
Ishapore .308 folding stock "Un-Assault"
Scout rifle,
it was my first custom Enfield project.

Politics!
Always
under
construction.
I feel compelled to post this page in an effort to preserve our constitution and country.
I started work on
this
Political Blog section in
response to the sad current state of American politics and the supreme
court's incredible
McCain-Fiengold ruling.
That alleged "law" and the ruling upholding it, essentially attempted
to repeal our first
amendment rights in preparation for destroying the Second Amendment.
The content of my politics pages are likely to offend almost everyone
on some point or another, this is my fair warning, if you are overly
partisan or sensitive please just view our product pages.
I realize that some people may not agree with my view on some issues,
and I
tend to be plain spoken.
The views expressed here are my own, views expressed on linked sites
are beyond
my control.
I have decided that I cannot allow my voice to be suppressed for fear
of
"offending" some one, that would be too much like surrendering to the
"PC" extortionist I intend to oppose at every opportunity!
The supreme court
ruling
upholding the "McCain-Fiengold campaign finance reform act"
essentially repealed our "First Amendment" right to free speech.
Candidates and
the fifth
columnist media retain the ability to say whatever they like, but
individuals
and pro-gun advocacy groups may no longer buy media time or space to
report on
candidates positions or voting records regarding the second amendment
within
sixty days of an election!
Political
activism on an
individual level has now become more important than ever if we are to
retain
any ability to influence our elections and resulting legislation.
Seditionist
enemies of a
strong America have been targeting gun ownership in congress since 1933.
There has long
been a rumor
of a "One hundred year plan" to deprive us of our right to arms.
Major
infringements of the
second amendment were passed at the federal level in 1934, 1968, 1986,
and
1994.
It has been just over ten years since the anti-gun rights hate groups
achieved
their most recent successes.
Two of these flagrant constitutional violations, the "Assault Weapon"
and "High Capacity Magazine" bans have finally "sunset"
after ten years!
The "sunset" provision was a bargaining chip to persuade fence
sitters to vote for their passage, after six failed prior attempts.
The "Bans" automatically
expired
September, 13 of 2004!
HOORAY FOR OUR
REGAINING A
SMALL MEASURE OF OUR FREEDOM!
But we must remain vigilant
to ensure that
congress never passes new legislation to reinstate them!
These
unconstitutional
outrages have been allowed to stand by the courts, and a congress that
has
forsaken it's oath of office.
Now the traitorous personalities responsible for them feel confident
enough to
openly attack the first amendment!
I will list
contact
information for congress, particularly for Nevada.
I will list
pro-gun bills to
be supported, and anti constitution bills to be fought.
I will list links
for pro-gun
sites, and solid suggestions for supporting bills and candidates.
When the
opportunity arises I
will list candidates who support the constitution, and examples of
liars trying
to claim they support our rights when in fact they do not.
Many other sites
will list at
least some of this information, but too often they "pick &
choose" what information they display with an eye to remaining
"politically correct", or "mainstream".
This attitude
plays into the
hands of the seditionist, it assumes that it is possible to compromise
with the
extremist seeking to deprive us of our rights.
It is impossible
to maintain
a fair bargain with irrational people.
Each "compromise" we make will only be followed by more demands from
the anti's, until we have "compromised" all of our rights away, one
"law" at a time!
I will list
information based
on it's intent, without undue regard for weather or not it is
"politically
correct" or considered "Do-Able" by the self appointed arbiters
of the pro-gun rights community.
Please help get these bills reintroduced!
They need our very vocal support in order to stand a chance at
reintroduction and passage!
Each was an excellent bill, with strong long term benefits for our gun
rights.
H.R. 1141, Veterans
Firearms
Heritage Act, currently stuck in committee.
H.R. 1791, Fairness in Firearm Testing Act.

'08
primary
results so far, my
take.
What
can I say, I am disgusted by the "presidential candidates"
of both parties.
I
think that in this election the races for congress are now clearly more
important than the presidential race.
It has become clear that we will need genuine conservatives to limit
the damage originating from the White House, no matter who wins!
Important
Nevada
2008 political races!
To keep Nevada from
being "Kalifornicated" it is imperative that assemblyman Bernie Anderson (D-Sparks)
be defeated in the 2008 elections!
Bernie plays dirty, our candidate will need a strong stomach, an
impeccable history, lots of monetary and volunteer help.
Contact
information for
members of congress.
John
Ensign personally assured me that he was committed
to
ending the "Assault Weapon" and "High-Capacity"
Magazine" bans!
Those bans DID end, with his help.

Senator Harry Reid (D) NV.
What
kind of
senator is Harry Reid, how does he truly think of gun owners?
Perhaps the
following
transcript of a campaign spot he ran during his campaign against John
Ensign,
will illustrate how he really feels about gun owners, and NRA members
in
particular!
“Stand
Up”
Harry Reid Radio
Spot :60
Comedienne: Thank
You.
Thank You, Folks. You know me, John Ensign’s worst nightmare.
(Laughs)
People ask me if I
make up
these Ensign quotes. I tell them, I'm not that funny. (Laughs)
Okay,
before I begin, do we
have any crazed and violent criminals in the audience? (Claps)
Yeah,
Yeah, Okay, Well,
I've got great news for you, John Ensign thinks the assault weapons ban
is a stupid and ineffective law. (Boos)
And you
thought Charleton
Heston was your only friend. (Claps)
When John Ensign
was asked
what was in a piece of legislation he was working on, he said, “I don't
know, I don't read the bills.”
Maybe he'd prefer
Shakespeare. (Laughs)
But let's not be
too hard on
Ensign. I mean he did say he gave up millions of dollars to run
for
Congress.
I guess he used to
get a big,
fat allowance to manage his father's gambling casinos. (Laughs)
“Thank you,
Folks.
You've been a great audience.” (Claps)

Friends for
Harry Reid.**
Harry
Reid would
like gun owners to think he really supports us, he clearly does not,
except
when he is running for reelection!

cases important to
the second amendment.
Details on the "Stuart Ruling", which may actually
restore some integrity to the "Interstate Commerce Clause". The ICC
has been abused as an unconstitutional power grab by congress and the
Fed. Gov.
for many years. If the ruling stands it may have great implications for
our gun
and state rights.
UPDATE! The case has been remanded back to the Ninth Cicuit for
re-hearing, SCOTUS continues it's long record of cowardice regards our
RKBA.
