Some observations Savage #4Mk1*

**Garandrew** · 11-22-2010 01:34 PM

I just took the butt plate made of cast alloy gray color off my Savage No4Mk1*.
The butt plate itself, the butt trap, and spring are all marked ILCO with an S..
Not zamac icon

manucatured?
Was this maker used in conjunction with zamac?
The rear hand guard is variation 1, with no grooves..
SN 66C0626...
Any answers appreciated..Stratton says most savage No4Mk1*s had grooved hand guards..no mention of ILCO..Thanks, Andy

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

zamac

is a type of "grey" cast alloy - the same as saying Brass, bronze, etc

Are you thinking Zamac is the name of the manufacturer ?

(Sorry if I've misread the question)
