    You are pretty well on the nail with that Seaspriter. In UKicon service when the last EY rifles were inspected, repaired and rebuilt for War Reserve, the only mechanical difference between an EY rifle and the standard rifle was a relaxation in some trivial criteria and the fact that the barrel viewing and bore gauge criteria were slightly reduced. CHS remained the same
