    Australian MK2 MA Marked Barrel Handel

    I managed to obtain this spare MK2 barrel handle off eBay with the Lithgowicon manufacturer's marking.

    Nice find flying10. Lithgowicon MK2 wood work is very scarce as the stuff only appeared right at the end of the production run in '45. My Lithgow MK1A is within 20 of the last '45 guns made and that has a Lithgow MK2 butt! As well as a MK2 Lithgow carrying handle.

    I had thought that Lithgowicon never produced a MK2 carrying handle until I managed to acquire the above example.
