    I have read about lack of the gap in the wrist socket leading to chips, but in shooting thousands of rounds through my No 1 Mk III* and No 4 Mk II that don't have the gap I have yet to see it happening.

    Are there pictures of what it looks like? I'm not doubting what PL says, I would just like to see what it looks like, especially with detail of what activities caused the chips.

    Here is a pic of the top of my 1944 47C T shows the gap pretty well all the others I have are a bit fuzzy & out of focus.
    Mine has the mazakicon butt plate as issued, I'm in agreeance with Surpmil reflective stuff could swiftly bring about the demise of a sniper.
    I'm quite sure over the period of time with the hostilities it would have happened to the few snipers that did not take care.
