Building a No.4 Mk1 T clone, mk.1* or no *?

[jonh172]

I'm in the preliminary stages of building a mk1T and need a little info.

If this subject has been covered please let me know where to find it.

I want this rifle to be as "correct" as possible so, is it more correct to use a No.4mk1 or a No.4mk1* action?
Or does it depend on what MK scope I get?
Or does it just not matter at all?

Before anyone panics, I am NOT ruining anything original or collectable. I have a lead on both models with cut down, shot out barrels and a new barrel on the way for the build. I'm debating between a 1943 Longbranch no.4mk1* or a faintly marked No.4mk1.

I am just looking for authenticity.... as authentic as possible less the new barrel of course....
