Pictures of Surviving Monte Carlo-butted Lee-Enfields with C No. 67 Mk.I Scopes?

Most people think they are jostam's.

No one has done any research that i'm aware of.

Hey again Lee Enfield.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they do, honestly, without not many color pictures around, and given the resemblance, one may think they were Jostam Anti-Flinch pads, IIRC, the most highly sought after recoil pad for gun restorations.

Just a vague thought of mine, but I think S.A.L. produced the “C. 67” recoil pad as material-saving measure (rubber was a key war material during WW2), or/and as an improvement over standard commercial rubber pads. I’d say they may have even tried with rubber or other materials at some point, always prioritizing performance (maybe their goal was to achieve equal or better performance than most high-end recoil pads of that time), with the advantage of saving costs (S.A.L.-produced pads would’ve been cheaper than buying commercial pads). Something to think about.

Cheers.

My apologies, what I meant above is that with not many pictures of those rifles I can understand they think pads are Jostams.

I will try to get a picture of the "back end" view of the recoil pad if you like.

Would definitely love to see it bros, thank you.

Cheers.
