they are good basic references with a few errors in them.
A MUCH better choice is "The Lee Enfield Story" by Ian Skennerton.
Claven2 gets my vote, The Lee Enfield Story is a far better scribe, HTH-SDH
Certainly the Stratton book is worth getting.
While the Lee-Enfield story by Skennerton is known as the "bible" the second edition is out of print and brings insane prices unless you are very lucky.
The third edition of Skennertons book is due out next year in COLOUR. I doubt that it will be cheap, but if you are into Enfields, it is a must.
I have the 1st and 2nd editions, but I will still buy the third.:D
