    It's a very nice rifle mate and It's very hard to find these 30's dated lithgows in any condition let alone completely matching. The majority of 35 dated actions I've seen were assembled in 1940 so the pin and plate design is not always found in 1935 lithgows.

    Congratulations for acquiring this rare gun.

    5th if you don't have a photo of the recoil pins for RJW NZicon, I have one in my files.

    Hi Homer, can you enlarge on this? Were the pin and plates installed stock on enfields? when and where etc, very interesting.
