L1A1 Single Shot "UK" spec?? Any ideas?

[David TS]

Sounds nice David, can you tell me where you obtained the wood? I am looking for a hand guard, needs to be light beech to match my butt. do you have the tool to replace the butt?
I'm picking up at Gavins, only about 45min from me.
How are you going to break in the barrel? clean from the muzzle or break the rifle?
First new rifle I've had, being mostly into historic weapons, I have a Sako TRG but it was two years old when I bought it.

I got the wood from a chap in Germany. He did have a second set several weeks back, but I think he will only sell the complete set - buttstock, hand guards, pistol grip and trigger guard. I paid EUR 199.50 plus EUR 18 carriage. Let me know if you are interested and i'll PM you the details.

I haven't thought about cleaning mine yet! I'll worry about sighting it in and trying to shoot straight first.......

Been away for a couple of weeks - great news that these have started to ship. Looking forward to some pics of the delivered riflers and the range reports.....

Mine will be going retro - wood furniture. I'll post some before and after pics when I pick it up and do the swopover

First outing is on April 16 at Thetford with it

Amazingly there is someone else having theirs sent to my RFD - Simpsons of Newmarket - same day as mine. Is that anyone on here?
