Question Regarding Volley or Long Range Sights on the No 1 Mk III

I GREATLY appreciate that link, Roy.

From what I'm gathering, is that it's entirely possible at some point the volley sights were removed and a stock without them put on. However, it could still have had the magazine cutoff (as this one has the slot exposed, so I'm thinking it was removed during sporterizing).

If anyone can confirm that, I'd be grateful. I'm guessing it'll be far easier to find a forend with the magazine cutout relief and no volleys, and it'll still be accurate as far as what it would have left it's last arsenal.

Yes, it just depends on what you want to go for. and if there are rebuild marks that give clues. The latter option without volley sights would certainly be cheaper and easier to find even if the end result is less eye catching.
