Never seen anything like that for LE. Or heard of it. Keeping apprentices busy?

I'll bet they're just a fantasy piece to get buyer's attention. Never heard of anything but washers used. Why would you mark something like that with a broad arrow? And as stated, no way to remove them easily.

Ya, i know. But these have been selling!
One has to be quick, only a few left!
But what are they???
Whatever they are, I don't think that they are even military, never mind being a rifle part

A leather washer was used after the stock bolt was installed to dampen the rattle from the oiler. It's a leather washer with a hole in the centre so it can be removed with a special tool. These appear to be a repro of the washer however are not correct IMO and would be a brute to remove once seated on the stock bolt. Ron (Canada)

Agree entirely with BAR & rgg. IMHO they're an invention simply to bring in a little money for the seller. They look like they ought to be on sale at a craft fair. Originals are plain, & as mentioned above have a small hole in the centre so that you can hook them out with the appropriate tool...

Or, a suitable shaped wire coat hanger.
Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...

Total fantasy pieces, and crap ones at that... Sorry!
The leather stock wads have always had a hole in for removal.

Interesting, I have never seen anything like that either.
I suppose I had better be more careful when looking for things so I don't get scammed.
