    Lightbulb "Worn draws in your No1, 4 or 5 fore-end .... " (by Peter Laidler)



    With thanks to Advisory Panelicon member Peter Laidlericon, a new article has been added to the Technical Articles for Milsurp Collectors and Re-loaders (click here).

    "Worn draws in your No1, 4 or 5 fore-end .... " (by Peter Laidler) (click here)

    This interesting article about the correct way to replace the worn draws on your fore-end

    Article Extract .....

    In this article I hope to be able to advise you the correct way to replace the worn draws in your fore-end. Worn draws can usually be identified by you visibly noticing the group pattern opening up over a period of a couple of weeks. The SCREW, front trigger guard remains tight but the fore-end is able to slide fore and aft very slightly. …..……………..

    As with reading any kind of article, whether it be traditional paper magazine based, or in this case an electronic format, it's sometime difficult to gauge the reader's interest level. Peter has requested that if anyone has any questions on his current series of articles, comments or additions for inclusion in his articles under the "Collectors Comments and Feedback" section of the MKLicon article, or ideas for future topics, that they please leave feedback for him in the appropriate announcement thread.

    Regards,
    Badger

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.
