Hi Tankhunter,

Thanks for your clarifications.

I am very cautious about disagreeing with what nzl1a1collector said about the handguards being Indian, but apart from being a bit loose at the back (through wear and age?) they are exactly the same dimensions as the plastic, and fit perfectly to both my 1958 BSA L1A1s (an old spec de-act and a ACR straight pull).

They, and the pistol grip have the same screw threads as the plastic, so I’m wondering whether they might indeed be Britishicon – and what makes nzl1a1collector certain that they’re Indian?

Regards,

Charlie
