No.4 Mk1 magazine not seating

[Peter Laidler]

By back strap, I mean the strap at the back. Why would the original magazine make a rifle any more valuable than a rifle with a magazine, correctly fitted and numbered by an Armourer later in its life. Or come to that, a new magazine correctly fitted and numbered by a competent amateur.

I would kill to have a mag correctly fitted and numbered by an armourer. I meant more or less that I think it would be more valuable to have a magazine made by an actual Royal Ordinance or Savage than a knock off.
