MLE 1 parts?
Morning gents,
Does anyone know of a source for MLE 1 parts?
I just acquired an 1896 BSA & C rifle of this type.
I need a front band, nosecap, and rear sling swivel.
On cleaning, the barrel is a bit tired and worn, so maybe a barrel as well!
Any help most appreciated,
Richard.

I have been looking for over a year and parts for these seem to be thin on the ground in Canada. Ebay has had a few come up for sale mainly from sellers in NZ and OZ but they went for a pretty penny.
I used to enjoy restoring rifles but lately it has gotten so cost prohibitive that it makes more economical sense to buy a matching original rifle.

Pretty sure i have a spare front band, might have a rear swivel as well.. Swivels and nose caps do bring a pretty penny on eBay.
