#4 Mk1* debubbad

[points]

I picked up a sportered M1* ysterday at the Burnaby gun show. Typical cut down wood and sadly, a couple of holes drilled and tapped into it. A Mystery as to why the guy did it. He replaced the rear sight with a 22cal open sight. Oh well.
I had, by good fortune, a complete set of furniture never used and every other piece of metal never used. After my "refurb", everything on the rifle with the exception of barrel, receiver and bolt is new out of the box.
The only thing I still want to do is weld the holes over.
Now let's see if I can download the photos.

What did bubba put in place of the original rear sight? Just a piece of aluminum to fill it in?

Bart, you're my frikken hero. An old guy like me relies on the good will of strangers.
I have no idea what the hell the guy was thinking when he put that aluminum block in place of the rear sight. It did nothing and he had to drill and tap a hole into the receiver to mount it.
As for the holes in the barrel, they are no more than one would do to mount a scope. Stupid though.

I'd forgotten that. The first time I ever humped an Enfield was in sea cadets in the mid sixties. It was almost as tall as me with the bayo. Thanks for the memory.
