    Savage No4 MK1

    Hi everyone, new member,I have recently restored a Savage No4 MK1*. It required a new barrel which i had done locally, it is now a 6 row as opposed to the original 2 row.
    Everything else is original except the bolt which is mismatched numerically but is spaced beautifully.
    Considering it is now not completely original, i have chosen to convert it to a No4 Mk1* T.
    I have a reproduction scope but i am looking for advice on the best mount and plates and where to acquire them.
    There isn't much left here in Australiaicon, in fact no one has any of these old parts that i can find. Any help would be much appreciated.
    This rifle is a joy to shoot and i would like to add the scope as a next level experience in using this rifle.

    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.

    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...

    Brenny, in my experience the best quality repro pads by far are those made for Fultons of Bisley. I gather they are not cheap, but you get what you pay for. They are in a different league to the pads you see commonly advertised on that internet auction site.
