I sent a reply to this but I can't find it, in any case, I have what you want. My email is pre36@cox.net
and maybe that is easier than all the messaging on the forum. Paul

Those are some very nice looking M1 rifles. I also enjoy the M1, I have two Springfields (1M and 5M serial numbers). Both are “CMP Specials”m all refinished and with new stock sets. The 5M SN has the original barrel and the 1M SN has a Criterion barrel I installed myself. I regularly shoot CMP matches with the M1, No. 4 LE and AR-15.
If you have any spare No. 4 bolt heads for sale, please PM me. |

Not sure how we work this out but since you're in ND it should make it easy. Since I have not examined the wood lately, I am not positive if I can put together a full set of Lithgow wood for you or not but Goosic can probably help me and he's coming over tomorrow. Does it HAVE to be Lithgow or would other manufacturers be ok? Secondly, needless to say, the prices would be different between new or pre-owned wood but anything that is not new can be refurbished to look ok if you're handy at all with woodworking refurbishing. I'll know more tomorrow when Goosic comes over and I'll get back to you.
it may be easier for us to communicate back and forth with our email addresses, mine is pre36@cox.net. Cheers, Paul

I may be willing to purchase those if you are selling them, depends upon how many you have and the price. There is also an issue with shipping live ammo, you need a license unless you identify the contents of the box as something else. I have shipped some ammo myself (unlicensed) and specified the box contents as "machined parts," it all went through UPS without a hitch.

Hi Paul, great story and thanks for the background - this is why I love this addiction of rifle collection! I haven't switched my studies to the Garand yet as I still have a lot to learn about the Lithgow Enfields, which is my passion. I would enjoy learning about any Lithgow spare parts (wood, hardware, etc) you may have for the No.3 as I am looking for an No.2 Safety Catch Spring and a 1945 era trigger guard. Regards,

I do have #3 wood some brand new and some pre-owned. However, I can't disfurnish the wood as Lithgow or not. Ditto on the trigger guard but I have one.

Please contact me at my normal email address, pre36@cox.net. We can get more specific and be sure I have exactly what you want, you will probably have questions and more info on the wood I have.
Thanks, Paul

Did we ever get together on stock sets for the #1 MKlll. I have a great selection of wood that will probably work for you. I no lo9nger have any use for the wood, I won't be restoring any more Enfields.

New member here. I have No. 1 Mk3 Lithgow 1906 build date.
I'm in need of a bolt head w/charger guide. Any chance you have one? I am building this gun from barreled receiver/ butt stock I got when I bought my other Enfield in 1965 for $15.00. Thanks for any help Des1944
