    Hi Gil / Simon, I have recently picked up a couple of L39's serial numbers A529 & A509, if possible can you give me any further information on them. Many thanks, Paul.

    Paul,

    L39A1 Rifle Serial number 509 in 7.62mm went to Donnington on the 13th November 1970 batch number 68/685.

    L38A1 Rifle Serial number 529 in 7.62mm went to Donnington on the 13th November 1970 also batch 68/685.

    Thats all that is recorded, hope it helps.
    Gil

    Mike,
    The only thing recorded for that rifle is it went to Donnington on the 27th February 1970 as part of batch 68/685 - 444015/8

    Hi Gil,

    Just thought I'd pop in and let you know you're doing a Sterling job here. I still lurk occasionally but just never seem to have as much time as I'd like. Brief bit of downtime before it's off again at the start of May.

    Cheers,

    Simon.

    Simon,
    No worries mate, as long as I don't get struck down by a thunderbolt I'll try and help out. Stay Safe

    Hi, I've been interested in owning an enforcer for awhile now, didn't realise the prices🤯 Ive seen two for sale recently, first one is number 159, the second from what I can see the picture looks 756.
    Also on speaking to another person he has 213 but knows nothing about it, said he bought 213 from York guns years ago. Any info appreciated

    Enforcer Rifle Serial number 159 was sold to Glasgow Police Firearms Unit on the 8th March 1974

    Enforcer Rifle Serial Number 756 has no recorded information on the lists, however, either side of that number were sold to Bangkok Police in Thailand on the 26th January 1983.

    Enforcer Rifle Serial Number 213 was sold to South Wales Polce Firearms Unit on the 26th April 1974
