    Cheek rests?

    Anyone know if anyone has made a walnut cheek rest for a M14/M1Aicon similar to the ones used on the No4 T's?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Yes, Griffin and Howe made them for the commercial scope mounting service they offered for the M1icon. The cheek rest was custom fit for the shooter. I don't know if they still make them, I doubt it.

    Thank you, I wonder what Griffin and Howe would want for one though.

    Israelis also made one, if I remember correctly. Very tall and odd looking thing.


    ETA found an auction w/ one- but the stock is painted w/ black crinkle nastiness. Don't think that's the way they came...

    Good grief, how does "J the D" keep selling stuff for such ludicrous prices???

    Now that looks like someone took a ugly stick and beat the stock.
