Enfield No8 gets a new home

[bigduke6]

Thanks all, concerning the civilian No8 reading the article on the link below the civilian rifles were void of any military markings and had only the serial number plus they had a drum fitted to the underside of the butt for sight elements, finish was also supposedly better ( Peter also gets a mention as his notes are Re-printed there .....) for anybody who collects trainers or .22 rifles whilst browsing the the link have a look at the Leauges in the top right corner, its a postal league that may be of interest to a few...

Lee-Enfield Rifle No.8 for the British Forces


Simon a No7 and No9 are on the list.....

Brian having a bit more time and the temp hopefully rising in the near future most of the projects I,ve put on hold will get the dust blown off them (just too cold in the workshop at present).


Give it a run out last night and can't fault it apart the person behind it.... also anybody know if the butt pad was a standard BSA item ?
