What part for my Lee Enfield?

[David_K]

So I got a sport enfield that doesn't have a rear sight but I picked one up at the gun show today. I put it on and see that I am missing a little part that goes under the sight that prevents it from flopping around. What is that little part and where could I find one?

I assume you have a No4 Lee Enfield?

Then you'd need the rear sight plunger and its spring.

I wonder if I could find a spare? I'll take a look today. Otherwise I'm sure others around here will raise their hand

I think I would have one. "Springfield Sporters" is good at enfield stuff as well.

Yeah, it's a number 4.
