#1mk111 cutaway canadian marked

[granite]

I saw a cutaway #1 today. Looks well done. Has c broad arrow on butt wrist and rt side as well as on receiver and barrel. Now I don't have pics but did Canada use these? Any idea on value?

Thanks for any advice.

Do you mean did we use the cutaways or the #1 Mk 3s?

Did we have cutaways?

I would imagine that every Army in the world used cutaways as instructional models during the later part of basic or trade training. They were call skeletonised rifles.

I know we had the skeletonized FNs and the #4 skeletons exist. I should think #1s would be in existence too.

Oddly enough, our Skeleton SLR was actually an FN FAL.

The full length No1 skeletonised rifles are quite scarce in Australia. I wonder if many were destroyed when they were no longer required.

Navy Arms imported a number of cut-aways from Australia around the same time Jovino brought in their horde. They had to replace the barrels so ATF would not treat them as pistols(too short). I managed to get two of them.

That's possible as we had to account for them the same as an active rifle, therefore storage space is a problem at times. Easier to dispose of than store.
