I'm looking for:
Forend
Handguards (have rear sight protector)
Barrel Band - or confirmation this is the same as the MkIII band
Dial Sight - have rear volley sight

And to a lesser extent, a good deal on:
Correct cutoff plate
Magazine with No3 Case

Many thanks! This will be a long term project, the rifle is a G prefix formerly ER prefix Irish issue rifle, made in 1907 at Enfield.  The barrel is untouched and the rear sight is there and complete, as well as overall condition is decent to good.

That makes 2 of us. I just found out that one a friend gave me is an Irish contract too. It looks like the correct nose cap with the curved sight protectors are made of unobtanium.

I've actually since found all of this! I don't know if they still have them, but Apex Gun Parts had the nosecaps for a while. I picked several up for this project and other MkIs I've since acquired. Prestigious Wood Stocks makes furniture sets. The hardest part to find was an LES 2 volley dial.

That gives me some hope. Apex is out of them at the moment, but I added my name to the notification list.

Thanks fir posting the info on Prestigious Wood Stocks.  I've had a Mk. I*** since 2008 and have had zero luck finding wood for it.
All gun control is unconstitutional.
