    Newby l1a1 question

    Hello all! I am the proud new owner of an l1a1, british/inch pattern. I would like to repl the plastic furniture w/wood. Any suggestions as to where to start looking? I have noticed that there are several companies that make repro wood. Any comments on these? All help is greatly appreciated.thanks, joez.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    A decade or so ago I restocked an L1A1 with wood from Ironwood designs. Quality wood, fit well.
