Yeah thats were I'm stuck at ,I know the scope and mounts are worth money maybe more than a restored rifle(with non matching barrel and stock) what other parts are people looking for on these rifles?
how rare are the bsa no4 Ts?
the barrel looks to be threaded .does it just unscrew and screw the replacement on?

I do like to restore stuff (69 firebird 400,69 airstream land yacht,80 turbo trans am) if it worth it in the end. none of the above are 100% correct matching #s but all look very close only experts can tell.

Iguess what i'm wondering is this type of restoring acceptable in milsurp guns or would I be wasting time and money on the whole package when I could sell the scope and buy a socom m14.(u know what I saying)
