    Anyone ever converted a Mk1 trigger guard to Mk2?

    I'm having a bit of trouble sourcing a No.4 Mk2 trigger guard. Isn't it just a Mk1 ground back a bit? Has anyone done this operation before?

    I presume you are talking about the trigger guard for a No4 Mk2 rifle where the trigger is attached inside the action, as compared to the trigger guard for a No4 Mk1 where the trigger is attached / pivots within the trigger guard.
    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...

    I’ve got a bucket full of them. How many do you need?

    Thanks for the reply Brian. I'm just after one. I might try the classified section for the first time to see if I can source a local (Oz).

    A simple WTB ad placed on the forum would have solved that one...
