Looking for a No. 1 Mk.1 stock set

[brandx70]

Hope someone here can help. I recently aquired a sporterized No.1 Mk.1*** rifle with a beautiful bore. The only problem is the wood was cut down. The barrel is the original length and still retains the original sights. No holes drilled in it for a scope mount. I have all the metal parts I need to restore it, i just need good wood. I have a butt stock, but nothing else. If anyone has a set they want to sell, or can point me in the right direction, i'd really appreciate it. I know they are hard to come by, so i'm okay with a reproduction or modifying another stock so it will look right. Just don't want to settle for a mk. 3 stock. rather keep it correct looking. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Original type repro wood in walnut at EFD.com, I used them and very pleased. Its also on the rifle at the top of enfield resource.com.

Just as a point of interest, your rifle is a Mk1***. The model was precluded from the changes to nomenclature in 1926 when the designation "Rifle No 1" came to be.

See the Knowledge Library entry on the Mk1 series of rifles here
Milsurps - 1903 ShtLE (Short Lee-Enfield) Mk1 Rifle

and read on through to a detailed explanation of the 1926 changes and what they meant.

They come up on ebay every now and then.I am waiting for one to arrive in aussie from the old dart.The small hand guard is alway problematic as they are prone to splitting. Cheers Ross

Give Gunworks a try in NZ they might have something.

Had some Enfield spares from them a couple of years back:
