REM 700 help needed

[Light Infantry]

So i pulled out an old warhorse from the back of the cabinet. An old Rem 700 built, i believe, by NASS.

The trigger guard is broken. IIRC correctly there are 2 lengths of trigger guard? How do i tell. It also has a hinged floor plate if that makes a difference. I wan to buy one on the EE but not sure what part i need to ask for.

700'S come in two lengths... short action and long action. The short action is roughly 6.5 inches between screw holes...

I have a new silver trigger guard assembly (complete with hinged floor plate) for the short action and one for the long action.

I have separately a black hinged floor plate for the short action and an extended hinged floor plate which allows for a larger shell capacity for the short action.

6.5 inches it is!
