No.4 Mk1. Enfield FTR stocks

[Tinmasher]

Hello CGN,

Im once again looking for advice. I am about to begin restoring a no.4 mk.1 that has been FTR'd. My question is, will a normal no.4 mk.1 stock set work?

Thanks for any help.

No difference unless it was up graded with the trigger pinned to the action. Even then the stock can be modified to fit. I acquired a couple of unissued stock sets from 49 that fit the 41 and 42 Savage and Fazakerley with minor fitting of bands.

There were a variety of FTR "versions", from a basic look over and bringing back up to spec. to a full on rebuild and refurbishment to as new condition.

Is it "Through" or "Thorough"?

Quick! Check Skennerton and Reynolds.

Check out the for end of the gun you seek to restore. Either it is open or closed with a metal band
in the trigger area. Buy the same type as a replacement

Factory THOROUGH Repair.

The rifle was repaired THOROUGHLY: muzzle to buttplate.

A rifle which had undergone FTR was treated as a NEW rifle.
