Mills No.5 Filler Plug

[Scout Sniper]

Hello friends,

Does anybody know if its possible to find decent No.5 filler plugs for sale in nice condition. I have a No.5 that is immaculate but requires a replacement filler plug.

I have been on the lookout for a while with no luck!

I would not want the soft lead variant.

Any help appreciated

I assume its a brass one you will need.

As long as its in good condition and genuine that is fine

I currently have a reproduction to fill the hole but on such a nice example it deserves better.

Not immaculate, but they might clean up OK:

A good scrub if its brass would clean up like new, thats how spares are found.

I ordered one from them but they just refunded me with no explanation?

So im going to dismiss them...

Back to the drawing board.

I'll just check to see if I have a good one spare. Will let you know.
