Would a pickguard that came off a teens A model fit onto a teens F2 or F4? I looked at pictures on the mandolin archive and it looks like it would fit but I don't want to make any assumptions. Anyone have an idea?

It could be made to fit. The location of the little pins that anchor the guard to the edge of the board are always a little different, and might be problematic. There's also the issue of the clamp, which we can hope will match; it will probably be this one:
