    Ross Mark II rear sling swivel?

    Hello all,

    I recently bought a decent U.S.-marked Ross Mark II rifle, but it is missing the correct rear sling swivel. It's probably a long shot, but if anyone has any ideas regarding where I might find one, I'd be very pleased!

    Thanks in advance for any replies....

    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. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    There are lots of Ross parts on ePay these days. Quite a few rifles being broken up for parts in the US by the look of it.

    Ross swivels

    I'm in the same boat, my swivel holders, are left there in front of the trigger guard, and on the middle "barrel band, but no wire.
    I had some P.H. angular swivels, for my Lee Enfield's, and I tried one of those, it seemed to fit quite snugly. Result I purchased 3 round P.H. replacements from Tracey in the UK, they are on the way, I'll let you know how they work when they get here.
    I also have a Brown leather strap, I was told it's for a P17, with a rectangular brass sliding buckle, on it, type of adjuster. Look's the part, I'll post some pic's when I'm a little bit further down the road.

    If someone would be so kind as to post some dimensions, I can easily make some, I don't know if these are or will be correct, just seemed like a good guess. Were they then fitted with a Britishicon sling, or one of the US Kind, I can fit any ob mine as it's a commercial Target rifle. Any advice appreciated.

    Regards

    Surpmil, I haven't seen many Ross parts on there. What are you searching?

    I know there was a MkIII with a bad receiver and missing bolt parted here recently and I sold a stock and a few other small parts
