    Anyone who watched the auction will know...the bidding went to $17,750 (I think) and the rifle did not sell. (big reserve on it presumably)

    Only 2 bidders were up at those lofty heights.

    I've seen a number of Enfields with ZF painted on the side of the buttstock. I've wondered, why would the armourers not have stamped this right into the receiver? (like you see DP on quite a few...

    I agree with Surpmil. I own both scope types and greatly prefer the T.O.S. over the earlier design.
