No4 MkI* Savage 1943 - Site guard marked S?

**baconslayer** · 06-06-2024 06:38 PM

Good evening, all. I am wrapping up a resto on a sad Savage sporter i rescued. Last item is the front sight guard. I am having trouble finding a marked "S" front sight guard. Were the front sight guards marked with the Savage "S"? Not able to find any documentation either way, I thought I would ask here. Thanks!

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.

Hey Baconslayer: Just checked, the Savage No. 4's have a small squared "S" on the forward-facing part of the Protector, Foresight Mk 2, aka CR469 (as per Skennerton icon

's SAIS No.2, p.32).
Regards,
Bill
