1907 BSACo ShtLE I***

[Flying10uk]

As has already been suggested in posts 9 and 14, if this rifle was mine I would retain the existing fore-end and "let in/scarf" additional wood to replace the wood that has been lost. This should be a relatively simple repair job for someone with modest carpentry skills. Not only would this save needless expense but also retain much of the rifle's originality.

If you could post a picture of the bayonet looking at the muzzle ring from the pommel end, please, we should be able to say for sure if it's a 1907 bayonet or not. We can tell this by the muzzle ring being closer to the blade than is the case with the P14 or M1917 bayonets.

We don't really need closer pics, that bayonet is for a M1917 rifle or P14. It's got a VERY tall crosspiece. That's not 1907. Don't believe me? Wait...
