Thread: 303 woodwork

Hi guys
I'm trying to restore a sporterised 303
Any ideas on where to source woodwork ?
Cheers

I have got new old stock No4 mk1 stocks from Canada before-think it was eBay

Boyds do sporterised wood

PM inbound.

Cheers guys :-)

I may have a stock in whangarei , if interested give me a shout,

I've bought a sporterised no4 and a P17 stock from Boyds, no problems.

I think he's looking to restore a 303 to it's original military configuration? I'm looking at one right now but it's $265 shipped within Canada but it might be a task to get er to NZ if he'd even be willing.

For full wood that looks pretty good it doesnt look a bad price, except, the forestock however is I think the South African contact wood, it looks like it anyway. Ask if its stamped CE1967 on the steel nose protector, if so it is....bummer.

You will also need the tuning parts that are inside the forewood.

Ah, a 1941 Lithgow is a good buy, not common. I only have No4s, Im after a P14 right now, a no1 mk3 later on, yes probably next year once the P14 is sorted. The stocking of a No4 and no1 mk3 is considerably different so my pics are all no4. There is great book by an Aucklander? Roger W that I have that contains both tricks and tips, also he's on youtube, well worth watching. I recommend his book, either electronic (my one) or hardcover.

You just missed a brand new un-issued foreend it was probably ex-oz replacement contract on Trademe, bugger.

If I see any wood / parts I will let you know. TM will probably have the top woods for a no3, pretty common.

Is it missing anything else?

Might want to look at this as it looks like its stamped MA
