    Ross 1905 MKII upper handguard

    Recently i was lucky enough to do a trade for a rather nice looking Ross 1905 with US military markings , the only thing it was missing is the upper handguard ? Does anyone have a spare one they want to sell or the email of someone who reproduces them? I ask because i saw someone listed on here as reproducitng them but their mailbox is full so i cant send them a message and i replied to their thread about making them and no reply yet back . So i was trying to see if anyone had one to sell . Let me know.

    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.

    You could try sending some photos to the major US gun parts dealers. I remember one of them having some Ross parts earlier this year(?) which looked like they had come from incomplete rifles they had probably had sitting around for decades and finally decided to break down for parts. You can find photos online of course.

    That sucks! I guess Try finding an upper you can borrow and get a usa duplicator to copy it for you.

    Way to many nanny state regulations out there! With both countries!

    Or...they produce it and ship it to a Canadianicon. The it turns gift and is shipped to a friend in the US...perhaps after oiling with the desired stain or oil. Then it isn't raw and it's a gift.
