trigger guard Mk1 No111* 1944 Lithgow.

[Black Prince]

Hi there after pulling apart my Lithgow Mk1 No111* to clean of 70 odd years of blackness, furniture and bore.
I find that the trigger guard is not level, at the King screw end there is an downward bend.
Not having a Mk1 No111* before apart.
My question is this normal or should it be straight and level from front to back.
The witness marks on the forend show more contact in that area.
I hope these pics turn out.

It should be straight and level. Use a piece of plate glass and adjust as needed. Make sure the front guard screw collar is fitted correctly.
