    Push pin instead of oiler?

    Anybody know any details about this? There is a spring loaded pin in place of the oiler, it looks like it is designed to be there, there is a small hole on top of the butt stock to push it out and there are recesses that it rests in. It's a Winchester stock but I don't know if it's post ww2, Korea, or later. Any clues would be appreciated. Attachment 49344

    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.

    Thanks, it was a pain to get out, haven't seen another like it. It must have been made that way, the holes are too precise, and must have taken a special tool to countersink the ends inside the slot. I have been a carpenter all my life and would have to scratch my head to do that with normal tools. It's a weird one.
