lee enfield mk4 forestock help needed please

[Peter Laidler]

Top rail = the HANDGUARD EASILY modified to suit. Butt, once again, easily modified to accept the new butt plate plus wood patch the existing sling loop recess. Fore-end, fairly simple. Triggers are identical. Upper band, use a No4 band and sling loop BUT when you recess the fore-end and handguard to take the No4 band, do it carefully to as depth to suit the slightly different diameter of the No4 band (unless you have a slightly different No5 band. Technically speaking a No5 flash eliminator is not allowed in the UK as a spare part but in your case.......... anyway

Froim now on, your project is transforming a No5 RIFLE. It's not being pedantic but a a Mk5 is not a No5

It's probably not a good idea to buy yourself a Flash eliminator in the States, avin, and get it posted to yourself in Scotland because the package may get opened on entering the U.K..
