Speaking of the trainers, does anyone have an idea on how many No 7's were made, BSA's vs Long Branches? I understand there were two production runs of the LB's, but have yet to run down any production numbers.
Thanks.....

Longbranch production of CNo7 - 1944-1950 = 20,000
BSA Production of No7 Mk1 for the RAF - 1948 (only year produced) = 2500

No8's = Fazakerly 15,000, BSA 2000
No9's = Parker Hale 3000

If one had the choice, if you could keep only one, which one would be top dog, either as a collectible gaining value, or as a shooter, no8 or no9?

For those unfamiliar with the numbers as I was all too recently, the no8 is a .22 enfield that resembles a stocky jungle carbine and was purpose built to be a .22 trainer/shooter, while the no9 .22 enfield is a no4 enfield with a .22 conversion.

thats a hard one, the No8 is one hell of a accurate a rifle, the No9, is a loverly looking rifle that whilst not as accurate as the No8 is still a heap of fun to take down to the range. I am not sure if i could actually choose?
