Gibbs Rifle Company, perhaps most famous for their 1903 Springfield rifles, were showing off today a .45-70 conversion of a Fazakerley No. 4 Lee-Enfield:

It’s not well-known now, but the original caliber of the Lee design that would become the Lee-Enfield was in fact .45-70, so this conversion is following on what was once well-trod ground.

Gibbs is also importing 7.62×39 AK rifle magazines from the Matra factory in Bosnia. The magazines they had on display were very well-made, without many machine marks, and with freely moving followers.

The magazines feature a bolt-hold-open device, as well:

The magazines are brand-new production, come in 30 and 20-round versions, and feature an unlimited 5-year warranty. According to Gibbs’ literature:

If it doesn’t work, breaks, or wears out, we will replace it. Period.
