BSA 1944 Shirley 47C T

[CINDERS]

The process may upset the real purist but here is what Ken did after we discussed at length a course of action;
Ken made out of aircraft grade material a copy of the draws area the block sorta looks like a U with the item is then held in place by as Peter says aircraft grade epoxy (I asked for it) also where the rear pin went through this now has threaded into the block bolts from both sides picking up the rear tab.
The block was milled to the exact angles as per specifications for the draws, it may sound a desperate sacrilege of this weapon and I spoke to Ken for about and hour on the system he devised he reiterated that these 303's were still going strong after years of shooting to be honest if I did not think it would work then I would never have had it done. (Takes some good tapping at the rear to remove it only did it for the pictures)
I have pics of it for the forum also some targets I shot when I got it back for some reason it hated being shot from prone from a Rocksteady rest so I ditched that used the sling with open sights then with scope playing around a bit with elevations and windage then shot 2 groups a 5 shot open sighted and a 3 shotter scoped this is the 25 yd Milsurps target for the 303. Used 174SMK's with 46gns AR 2209 RP cases Fed 210 Gold Match primers plus I crimp my rounds.

Some pics of my Teak stocked 1945 M A No 1 MkIII, I was advised to keep an eye on that knot which I have been doing no probs yet. It is a bit heavier than when it was in the standard stock.
