    L4A4 Mag Cover

    I'm after a Mag Well cover for a L4 Bren (3 would be better), I know I can cut them down from Mk1 covers ( thanks Kevin ) which i have but at least one original would aid my cause. Does anyone know where I might find one?

    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.

    To be honest, while there were very probably new pressings of the covers, I only ever remember seeing the L4 mag-well covers being made from the original re-worked covers

    Thanks Peter,
    Kevin is kindly sending me a stencil to work from, I was hoping for at least one original but it sounds like reworking Mk1's will give me the genuine item in any case .
    Cheers
