I have only ever seen these reported as a Lee Enfield No5 cleaning kit.

That's a £140, easy money if you can get it.
I dread to think what my attic may be worth!

Going thru drawers looking for something else a few days back and ran across four of these. If I remember right I paid about $2 ea for these twenty years ago

Looks like an ordinary No.5/Sterling smudge-gun one, without the 'crooks and nannies' brush or the oil bottle. British brushes are usually threaded female.

I checked Peters book and it mentions cleaning kit for the L42A1 page 124 in the CES but the T has no such item apart from the standard issue pull thru & oiler. Thing is the L42 does not break down whats in the kit so I cannot call them out on the description and some may be sucked in by the mythical sniper kit making the rifle that much better, cannot help it if they pay that price just wish sellers would not b*llsh*t people. Thanks for all the replies chaps.

The vendor would appear to have made the school-boy error of mistaking the substrate of the tin plated steel case for aluminium. If one was to analyse the material further by attempting to apply a magnet, I would suggest that the magnet would attach it's self to the case, as one would expect with tin plated steel. As far as I am aware there is no aluminium, known to man, that a magnet will attach it's self.

Can't see the nylon bore brush but am wondering if it's the newer type like our MAG 50(C6) kit had, though our threads are longer. I also have had an adaptor for the older PH brushes during one of our famine periods, we bought "Outers" rods and had to use small adaptors threaded on both ends to put brushes on the rods. I still have one and can use military brushes on civilian rods. Still the kit ain't worth but a couple bucks...

I'm surprised that "SAS" wasn't included in the description.

I recognise the seller. High aspirations with most of his average wares...

Or "Tactical..."
