    Hand Guard Metal

    There are a lot of new handguards without the metal. Can the metal be purchased?

    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 ...

    Not that I know of. You'll need the sheet metal and the rivets. Maybe someone can post a drawing so a correct part can be fabricated.

    And the special rivet setting tool (note the set in the lower jaw). The tubular ended rivets minimized wood splits.


    (This set-up wouldn't work "as-is". You would need either a small diameter top set for the rivet head, or a custom built hand tool.
