Steve,

Rifle number 359 was shipped to Cumberland Police on the 8th July 1974. Where it is now or who owns it I have no idea.

Cheers,

Simon.

Hi Simon

I have just got Pecar scope No.359 with the original 26mm mounts. Do you know anything about the rifle and who the owner is?

Cheers,

Steve

Hi Simon

I have a transit case for an Enforcer marked 512. Its wooden with a foam interior cut to an Enforcer shape. It did have another number 547 which has been over painted.
Can you tell me which police force they were issued to?
Thank you.

Rifle 547 went to Northern Ireland Police (RUC) on the 24/3/77.

Has FlightRN been in touch?

Cheers,

Simon.

I have just acquired L39 A1 UE70 A624, can you tell me any more?

It has a 7.62 mag, a No.4-type butt, with the foresight elements container. Bolt head is a '2'.

The previous owner had heard that some L39s, and possibly this one, were converted to taking a 7.62 mag for later police use. Is there any evidence out there regarding this?

It has been proofed to 4680 Bar, in addition to its original 19T proof.
