    Where to find Ross Mk3 Nosecap/bayonet lug? Original or Repro?

    I have been looking around for a replacement Ross M10 Mk3 nosecap to go on a Ross M10 that I recently got. It has a full-length stock and is otherwise in full military configuration, but is missing the nosecap.

    I know that stock parts for these are very rare, but I did see some postings of possible reproductions. Does anybody know where to find one of these?

    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.

    Try a WTB here and see what shakes out. These guys have a surprising amount of odd stuff.

    Perhaps that was the Enfield carbine caps?

    Look no further than the Ross rifle restoration thread which currently is the one right below this one in the Ross rifle knowledge forum. A forum member (altadiver) is making them.
