I have a chance to pick up a heavily sporterized Enfield #4 Mk1*.
First, the cross pin that holds on the rear sight has been cut. Where can I get a new one and the small retaining pin that holds it in.
Second, I have always wanted a short carbine length rifle. The existing front sight that is on it, is razor blade thin, and very difficult to see, as well as fairly fragile. At a minimum, it will need a new front sight, and I would prefer something similar to the original issue sights. What I would really like, though, is to bob the barrel back to about 18" and put a front sight on it similar to the issue sights. Where could I find front sights that might fit the bill for a project like this?
