Hello, I am trying to order some replacements for the buggered up screws on an Ishapore Enfield.

My understanding is that the SMLE No.1 Mk III parts should work. I am trying to order through Numrich, but I cannot seem to locate the following two screws.

I need the name (or part #) of the screw on the bottom of the stock directly below the rear sight protector, and I need the name of the screw on the left side of the stock between the rear sight and the magazine.

They do not seem to be present on the schematic. Any info would be great! Thanks!

A photo would be of great help; without one, I'm guessing that the screw on the left side of the stock is probably the infamous "Ishapore screw" (ie:http://www.geocities.com/Yosemite/Forest/9504/articles/A003-13-4.jpg ) and can be replaced with any common screw/bolt that fits ( http://www.flemor.com/ishy/ishywagner/restore.htm ).

The other screw may be some type of repair or the the nut for the sight protector screw ( http://public.fotki.com/ParasPolishing/british-ishapore-1-/ishaporerearsightpr.html )

...or I could be rong on both accounts:rolleyes:

Regards,
Greg
 
I think you hit the nail on the head for me! Quick question, does the nut for the sight protector screw usually have a slot in it on the bottom (like for a screwdriver)? Thanks again!
