    Paper Weight

    I bought a TRW M-14 receiver heel at Camp Perry one year. I thought I'd clean it up for a nice paper weight.

    Today I thought a set of junk sights would look good. Then what about a selector knob? I thought I'd be best off by asking this question here.

    What do I need to add to this guy & where can I look for them?
    Not super fine funtioning parts, but paper weight grade.

    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.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    The sights should be easy to get, there are enough Norinco rifles around that cast off sights should be everywhere. I had three sets I sold just recently for $50CDN. The selector could be harder.

    I have an M14icon heel paperweight. I cut off the selector tab so it will sit flat on a table/desk/etc and was re-parked. Mine also has a rear sight and stripper clip guide installed.
