Who's got "teardrop" style forward assists?

**Bilbo** · 08-06-2009 12:37 PM

Hey folks,

I've been looking for a teardrop style forward assist with no avail. All the usual suspects either don't carry them or are out of stock. Any suggestions?

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. 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. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

If you already have a forward assist in your rifle you can order just the 'teardrop' portion from The Dealer Warehouse in Modesto CA(NO RELATION TO GEORGE LIAKOS who is in the NEXT Town).Phone is (209)545- 2800 ( I THINK ;so check that out before wasting a dime on the phone call)

I did this to my 6920.Remove the forward assist assy,drive out the rollpin that holds the round button part to the shaft and pawl setup.Replace the button bit with the teardrop,replace the rollpin and reinstall the whole assy.

You are now good to go.Worked for me BUT you need a rifle with a forward assist to start with.Cheers,JR
