Actually my request was with TonyE who unfortunately is no longer with us. Never got a response from Warminister, other than a "thank you" for the donation of items I sent them some time ago.
With Tony's demise went a wealth of info that is probably unsurpassed anywhere in the field of munitions. He also was one of the best arms researchers I have ever had the privilege of knowing along with Taylerson, Labett, Woodend and others. RIP old friends.
Ransford was indeed a colourful character and most of what I did find on him is in the annals of the Military Inspection Services of Canada.
Once I get some time to get back to the forum and also scan some documents I have on Ransford, I will post them.
Interesting chest and interesting rifle........

Bindi, Unfortunately not all. Some time since I took that photo. Probably, two or three. I can at least recognize my My 1915 Mk.III in the bottom row. Have a very soft spot for Lithgows. Have five altogether.
