    At long last, the 2BA taps have arrived and we can start arranging couriers this coming week.

    Apologies for such a late reply, it looks like I am not receiving notifications from the board. It looks like just about everything I built is spoken for although I may have one left and will know in...

    Roy, I have put your name on one. I need to machine some 2BA screws for the pads and then they are about ready to ship.

    Promo, lovely work although I think my bracket is a bit different to yours.

    Thank you and yes, they will eventually be available. Fitting should be straightforward enough as the original drawing dimensions the cut location and gives a datum for the rear pad and the front pad...

    I have just found a link on Guns International to an identical plate, not an identical rifle though and I am not convinced by the listing either.

    Yes, the odd traces of paint on the Parkerised parts are coming off very easily and I will finish it off when I get a spare moment.

    Apologies for the late reply, it is a busy time of year for us. Some pictures:

    Another SC 03A3

    Sometimes it is hard to say no.

    This came in today, a reasonably early (January 1943) 03A3 Smith Corona and this particular rifle came into the UK from the USA in 2014
