    No.4Mk1* wood, will it fit?

    Will No.4Mk1* wood fit a No.4Mk.2 Enfield? I have a mark 2 but I can't find wood for it, so could I use the Mk.1 stock and just remove the wee partition at the back of the bottom forestock? Is it that simple?

    Thanks

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    That has been done many times before. The only real problem will be that the tie plate in the back must be cut in half, or altogether removed and the areas filled. If you have the sporterised mk2 stock, you can transfer the rear hardware accross.
    Of course, you may also have to properly bed the rifle action in to the stock. The muzzle of the barrel should rest firmly in the bottom of the front of the forestock, with a pulloff of about 3-6 pounds. If lifted up and right or left, it should go back down to the center.

    and call Numrich, ask for the international order lady and order it. I've recently looked into one of those for my No 4 Mk 2.

    I ordered over $100 with no issues...they only care if you order something they're not allowed to ship without licences, like barrel/bolt/slide/receiver.

    I think she said up to $500 was okay.

    I received the No4 stock and it is a Mk.1 stock. I will leave the stock that is on the Mk.2 in place. I can't bring myself to cut the Mk.1 stock to fit the Mk.2. I will wait until a Mk.2 stock comes along. I also received a Mk.1 stock from Numrich, it is brand new, I had to trim the butt stock and the fore stock to fit.

    When it comes to wood fit. The tension allpied on the wood north of the reciever had a direct impact on accuracy. You may wish to find the spec. as defined by the maker (Enfield) and groom the wood to fit the standard set by them.HTH-SDH
