    Mk.II Forend cap

    I live in South Africa where Ross rifles are most uncommon. Over the years I've managed to obtain four, one of which I had to import from Canadaicon. My most recent local acquisition is an early Mk.II. Unfortunately it has been crudely sporterised and then roughly used. I have set myself a project of restoring this rifle. There is one problem. It is missing the forend cap. There is absolutely no possibility of finding one locally and I'd be grateful if somebody in Canada could let me have details of a dealer who may be able to supply the part. I attach a photo of the version that goes with my rifle.

    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.
