LE No4 MkII/3 stock removal help, please.

[bruceflinch]

You tubed it, no help...So anyone offer advice?

Got everything removed I can see. Stock drops down about a 1/4" from the receiver and that's it! Doesn't move forward. Tried fiddling w/ the trigger & magazine lever, no cigar.

Tips/hints?

Have you removed the cross-screw at the rear of the forend?

Thanks for a dose of reality!
The new stock has a pin instead of a screw, so I assumed it stayed in place...D'oh!

Post a pic of the rear of the forend, need to see if it's a Mk1/Mk1* or MkII, Mk1/2 or Mk1/3 type forend, your description No4 MkII/3 is not a Lee Enfield model designation & i'm just assuming you have either a MkII or a Mk1/3, should be a screw/bolt & not a pin.
