Does anyone have a good count on the number of No. 4 Trails rifles that were made? I'm thinking I read 3,400, but can't seem to find it in Ian's tome.
Is there a web site that has a listing of the production numbers of the various Enfield marks? There was a great posting of the Long Lee production numbers on GB's a few days ago. That would make a great sticky. Or is it already, and I missed it? :p
Thanks,
I found the following in Ian's "Buyer's Guide for the Lee-Enfield" -- Production Figures & Factories (page 47) -- No.4 MkI trials -- approx. 2,500.
Not an exact, but I hope it is of some help!
ADDITIONAL INFO:
Ian's the Lee-Enfield states the following on pages 212:
"This makes a total of 2,479 No.4 trials rifles. It is pointed out that this figure does not include the nominal 1,000 No. 1 Mk VI rifles manufactured in 1929-30 because by 1933, the distinction had been made between the No.4 and Mk VI patterns of new rifles."
Thanks,
I knew I'd read that somewhere but for the life of me couldn't find it.
LMGTFY, (let me google that for you!) Thank, again. Hey, you going to make the SOS in Louisville in December? Good show.....
As long as the roads are in good condition, I will be there. :super:Quote:
