need '43 Longbranch #4 mk1* accessories info

[next_of_kin]

Looking to get all the goodies for my '43 Longbranch No.4 Mk1*, but want to make sure that they are correct for the year of my rifle.

I know that there were 3 different ways they made the "pig sticker" bayonette, which one was produced/issued in '43?
Which scabard would be correct for '43?
And finally... Was there more than one buttstock cleaning kit issued for the No.4 Mk.1* If so, what should I look for in finding one correct for '43?
Thanks for any help!

Anything in service from 1943 onward, even if manufactured earlier, is potentially correct for a rifle in service from 1943 onward. They weren't that fussy with a war on.

Google BDL Ltd, dealer in British and Commonwealth rifles. Tends to have high prices, unfortunately, but for the right reasons - i.e. offers a good selection of the best guns in his store and has a reputation for very good service and product knowledge. Worth a visit even if you can't afford to shop there.
