This rifle had the wire reinforced stock, but the wire was in very bad shape, so I removed it so the gun could be dismantled. I would like to restore it back to it's original configuration. I guess I have a couple of questions. First; besides the stock wire reinforcement, are there any other modifications made to these rifles to turn them into grenade launchers. The date on the buttsocket is 1915 and the serial # is G802. The parts of this rifle all match, so it would be great to get it shooting. The barrel looks fine, 5 grooves in good shape, no pitting. Question #2- I read somewhere that only FMJ ammo should be fired in these grenade launchers. Is that true. Also, any info on the history of this rifle would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much.
