From pg. 312, Skennerton's "Lee Enfield Story:"
"some official figures for .303 rifle production at Lithgow list the following by fiscal years:-"
1922-1923-2,700
1923-1924-3,320
1924-1925-3,140
1925-1926-2,760
1926-1927-3,000
1927-1928-3,200
1928-1929-3,200
1929-1930-340

Relatively low numbers between the interwar periods.
