    Well I checked out that site Jim and that seems to be a 'dead end street". The links still work for info on the various rifles etc but the store is closed and the contact info also garners no results!
    I'll keep looking elsewhere. Bunker to Bunker books out of Calgary was a good source once upon a time for like minded books, I found a old email from them and requested a reply as all the old phone numbers are currently out of service. Kinda like searching for a rare rifle! lol.

    Often , if you dont get a copy when it come out, you'll pay much more later, if you can find one at all.

    We had a series of high ranking Indian Army Liaison Officers (Lt Colonels and Colonels) at the Schoolof Inf at Warminster, Trying to get info about Indian small=arms production from them was like pulling teeth. They did extract a high exchange price for an INSAS rifle, believe me! In fact, it was easier to get a free flight and stay at the Jat Regiment depot for a week for the Indian Independence Day parade in New Delhi

    I did get some facts about Bren to L4 conversions but little else..........

    Trouble is what we regard in the "Western world" as "militaria interest" some places may regard as spying or attempting to spy.

    Book

    It isn’t an easy book to find and is very pricey when found.

    I do have volume 1, but I believe Bob did 4 volumes on Indian Lee Enfields.
