Remembered Today:

SMLE Oiler

Just got back from Ypres and, whilst there, bought a brass oiler for my SMLE. When I put it in the stock it moves around inside. How would the oiler originally be fitted inside please? (Need a pull-through next!).

Thanks all.

The oiler was kept quiet by having a leather washer on one side (covering the head of the stock bolt) and the bulk of the wrapped pull-through pushing it from the other side.

That's great - thanks both. Just heard my mate has got a spare pull through for me.

Best regards.

I have no idea where the extra p in front came from

These instructions were really spot on. I achieved the right outcome tonight with my pull-through and it fits in the rifle with the oiler and some 4x2.

Thanks very much.
