I cant find it now, but if you search a bit there is pics of who sportered what and in the way that they done it. I know if you have an enfield that has the little stamped metal ramp on the front sight, it was sportered by Maltby. Those ones seem to have the thicker wood on the forstock as well. Those are my favorites. But you can still get those at Western Gun Parts.
If you have one that has FTR on it, it stands for Factory Through Repair, meaning it was refurbished at the factory before put into circulation.
I know parker hale done a whack of them to, and they look really sharp. Some even got refitted with spanky new barrels.
Once again, great thread!!
