No. 4 Mk 1/2 and 1/3

[limpetmine]

Years ago I was getting my display ready ready for the local show, and was deciding what rifles would be displayed. They had a judging rule that each rifle had to be qualified as Common/Uncommon/Rare/Never seen. This made choosing each rifle a task, to try to determine what's rare and how rare.

To this end, I (we) know how many rifles were converted in the /2 /3 trigger upgrade.
With my data in the Long Branch serial number listing, I extrapolated the data to make a scientific wild a$$ guess as to how many Long Branch /2's and /3's would have been made. I have those notes somewhere. As I recall it was a low number, less than 1,000, but more than 500. (This was 8 years ago, BTW, and memory fades).

In any case, I know of a four LB /2's (own two), and 19 LB 1/3's. (Own 4, and just got a new one). So even in this small sample, the numbers and percentages track with production numbers.

Is there any information of the hung trigger modification that I'm unaware?
