Excellent!!!
I did a couple bubba-ized No 1 SMLE's as faux 'jungle carbines' using Redfield #75 peep sights w/hunting knobs and Numrich flash hiders and rubber & steel buttplates...And one #4 'jungle carbine' also...Pics around here someplace...I also have two boxes of parts for #1 and #4 rifles, plus about eight different buttstocks...
Sadly, both stock disks I have are blanks; no regimental markings...
