I'm going to burst your bubble. The wood for P14/M17 rifles is quite hard to get. There are some surplus sellers, but all military surplus rifle types are enjoying a happy renaissance lately. Guys are doing exactly what the original poster is trying to do. All cheap or unbroken parts have been bought up lately, and many of those parts now trade on a secondary market for guys looking to match up makes and conditions.

Do a search on the American gun parts market for what they call Enfields. If the ad is for an SMLE, a No.1 or a No.4, keep looking. I don't know where to suggest here in Canada. The shops that had any quantities of P14/M17 rifles or parts went out of business 3 decades ago.
