The exterior dimensions are the same, the difference on the Mk 1 vs Mk 2 is the inside, at the rear of the stock. The Mk 2 is split, to make room for the "hung trigger" from the receiver. That is the simplest way to check. They can be modified to work in a Mk1. The barrel can be swapped out by a competent 'smith.

Jimbo,
It's much easier to get the right forarm rather than trying to put a Mk2 forarm on a Mk1 action (or mk1 on a mk2 as well).
A shortened barrel sure isn't good for a proper refurb job, but getting a spare barrel and having a smith change it may not really be cheaper than getting another sporterized rifle with ontact barrel!
