I purchased a old Enfield that has a busted butt stock. Came with a synthetic stock. I seem to be missing a piece that goes around the front part of stock to hold barrel in place... What is it called? Anyone know where to purchase ? I'm trying to find a way to post a picture.
I was completely mistaken , hadn't had rifle but a few hours. This is a ishapore 7.62 rfi Enfield version. Any how, it had the wooden handguard above barrel originally, but the synthetic does not.
You'll be wanting the barrel band (inner) . It has a small retaining screw and spring.
It's no longer required though.Quote:

It's fine, if you look at most sporters you'll see the rings is removed anyway. It has the two action screws, most sporter rifles only use those two action screws.
I like your armourers tool box with all the spanners and what not's to keep the old enfield going!!!!:madsmile::lol:
