I've some and some remington lees too! Probably the weekend before pics though. Someone surely has to be faster!
I have a No.1Mk4 sporterized rifle that, every time the bolt goes foreward it dents the cartridge case(won't chamber after this). Wrong magazine? How do I tell if it's got a bad or wrong mag.?
TIA, Steve
Steve, if it seats and locks in, then it probably just needs adjusting in the feed lips. sometimes followers and springs foul up, most much less likely.
Assuming you mean that you have a Rifle No4 Mk1 (there is no such animal as a No1 Mk4), find a mate with another #4 that is working correctly and borrow his mag to try in your rifle. If it works well with the borrowed mag, compare the two paying particular attention to the feed lips. Adjustment may be needed.:)Quote:

What, nobody has any pics of a single-stack MLLE mag, or all the variants of the .22 cal mags, or the elusive 20rd mag? How about the carbine 5 rounds mag or the BSA Lee-speed sporting rifle mag?
For .22 mags, the most commonly encountered are the No.2MkIV mag which is a standard SMLE mag with the guts removed and a "22" stamped into the side. After that, you often see the CNo.7 mag with "22" engraved on the side and a loading platform for the .22 shells (single shot) inside the hull. Outwardly, it looks like a No.4 mag. There are, of course, other types but they are not likely to be seen in the wild.
Of course your right, it's a No.4mk1. I must of been over tired? Thanks for correcting me.Quote:
