    Fultons of Bisley hold Enfield Drawings of these barrels! The earliest drawing dated 20 oct 1967 has a muzzle dimension of .588-.598, this is marked DD(E)24720/SK/392. Next is dated 24-June 1968 with a muzzle dimension of .587-.590. This is marked DD(E)24720/SK/392/J. Then there is a drawing dated 20 Nov 70 with muzzle dimensions of .667-.670. This appears to be the standard barrel after this date and marked with CR1470. Interestingly the L8 muzzle dimension appears to be .596 (drawing ref no DD(E)20029/392) dated 29 dec 1960.
