How hard to find are the MkII chargers for the Enfield these days? And what would be a normal price for them?
In the Quartermaster stores I did find the 100 .303 rounds with clips and boxes. But I can't own the rounds.

DS Solutions in the UK sell a pack of 10 chargers for £18, so I guess about Euros 2 to 2.50 per charger would be OK.

Thanks! Only those are MkIV chargers..
Re thread 1........ Just buy the bits that you CAN own and ask him to sell the rest on, on your behalf. There's a goiod chance that the ammo is only going to someone who wants the actual ammo anyway and doesn't give a toss what sort of chargers are holding it together. Why can't you have the actual ammo?
What's the difference between Mk2 and 4 chargers as I'm a mere novice when it comes to most things. especially ammo associated guff?
The MkII chargers were WW1 era (with the slatted bases) and go for about £3 (3.6 Euros) each quite regularly on 'that well known auction site'. I managed to pick up a job lot of about 18 'phosphated' ones from Australia on the same site several years ago, but I expect the original 'blued' ones are more collectable.

& the Mk1 is like the Mk2 but without the raised ribs on the underside.
Excellent information...
I have seen the Mk I's go for as much as $27/AU a piece on that site depends on how bad you want them there are 5 from redbeachbabe on Aus flea bay site for $25 at present
Thanks for the reply's. Gives me a good indication.
@Peter: I already contacted the seller. (Haven't heard from him yet.) But the reason I can't have the rounds is because the laws here in the Netherlands....
