    Good grief! I hope you didn't have to sacrifice a good rife to get that pic.

    But a beautiful illustration, nevertheless!

    I wouldn't do away with the fore-end yet, as it looks like it was cut at the barrel band, then a piece can be spliced in, there is a guy in NZ who has just completed 2 x LEC fore-ends for me, and has spliced many Long Lee and SMLE fore-ends, look on the link below and scroll down the notice board just under Winston,
