5thBatt, Nope, I only use straight raw linseed oil which is nontoxic. Never really understood adding turps and everything else under the sun to "cut" it. It works just fine for me "straight up".
I'm with you on that one, Brian
Raw linseed oil - small amount rubbed in with bare hands and left to dry properly (up to a week) before reapplying ( if necessary ) with a similar small amount
Perfect finish and ohhhhhhhhhh that smell...........
just dropping in , i need to know exactly how roger can sit silently with the wife for prolonged period ? mine always thinks up something for me to do , and it seldom has anything remotely associated with lindseed oil and stock wood
We've been married a LONG time (sure seems like that anyway!).
Actually, she's a good sport & is very tolerant of my disappearing off to the battlefields at regular intervals, so I can't complain (really).

Do you have a picture of how these parts look like and what makes them different from normal SMLE/No. 4 parts? Recently bought a bunch of Enfield parts (including three magazines, rear sights, etc.), but do not know to identify what you're looking for.
Waco16 I'd say your only chance of finding parts like that now would be eBay or somehow getting the opportunity to sort through the parts bins at the major wholesalers, most of which are in the USA of course that said, I did find a trials foresight protector in a friend's parts bins once and years later the trigger guard surfaced from the same source, so never say never. Those parts are already on rifles by the way. ;)

They carry the stylised 'D' stamp for Enfield factory and Enfield Inspectors stamps on all parts.
The mag follows normal No4 configuration but carries Enfield maker and inspectors stamps
Fingers crossed!
