    The gun was a near perfect copy of the MK2 service except it had a plastic stock.

    I'll do a search later to see if I can find the thread.

    Edit - found it :-

    All the best Mick
    Thank you Mick.

    That's a new one on me. Doesn't look like it has a peep sight but then I can't see one on the 'new' Service either. I shall be at the show tomorrow and try to find out a little more about this project.

    Edit: I can now see from other posts that a horrible plastic looking optic has been fitted, which goes against the principle of the original. Paul O'Donnell makes some incredibly good replica 3rd series peep sights and I'd rather see one of these on the rifle than some modern optic.

    Kind regards,

    John

    That was my immediate thought as well.
