    Both styles of bracket, Top is "SAS" bottom is "Marine"
    Slightly different shapes plus "SAS" type uses cap head craddle screws and the "Marine" type uses the old tappered craddle screws.
    Using Allen bolts seems a bad idea! In an emergency, how you gonna get the scope off if you loose that 3/16ths allen key!
    Don't know, but allen bolts is what mine came with. Probably the other bloke's SMG/AR15 & grenades were for emergencies.

    So were these "ENVOYS" built on No4(T) actions or actual ENVOYS fitted with pads? In the photo the so-called ENVOY has a flat on the bolt knob and weren't all the ENVOYs built on newish No4 Mk2s with full round bolt knobs?

    I'm guessing it's a set of ENVOY wood fitted to a No4(T) action with an RSAF(E) hammer forged barrel.

    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
