Complete Bolt For Savage No.4 Mk1*

[conductor]

Many thanks for the referral, Alan. Once I obtain a replacement bolt, I plan on having a gunsmith fit it, using a copy of PL's article as a guide. Your message, however doesn't answer my question. Can I use a Mk1 bolt on a Mk1* rifle?

1. Once I obtain a replacement bolt, I plan on having a gunsmith fit it, using a copy of PL's article as a guide. 2. Can I use a Mk1 bolt on a Mk1* rifle?

1. Good for you but ensure that it is one used to working on Lee-Enfields. There is bit more to it than just checking the head space. (Which seems to be an obsession on your side of the pond.)

2. Yes. But you may want to get a Stevens-Savage marked bolt, just for cosmetic sake.
