No4T Cheekpiece Question

[rgg_7]

Does the 1 1/4" go in the front or rear hole? The 1 1/2" would then go in the reaming hole. Anybody know the wood screw size?

Yup, #8 flat head slotted, 1 1/4" in the front and 1 1/2" in the rear. I can only buy them galvanized so it has to be removed and then I Parkerize them. I have them in brass too. They're correct for Australian HT rifles. I've also seen them used on the No.4T. I've still got plenty if you need some.

Hi ...

You might want to try the Google CSE custom search engine located in the top right corner below the words "Advanced Search". For example, in your case, I typed in the words cheek piece no4 to see what would happen ..

I only had a quick look, so I'm not sure what the exact content is about, however, it turned up a lot of threads. You may want to try some other search terms of your own. I noticed the second link talks about "Cheek Piece Screws" and sizes etc ...
