Mick, as Lithy said it didn't get any official designation. I've got to wonder what would have happened if they had succeeded and went on to produce thousands of them. Perhaps the Military may have used them in competition against the rifle clubs as they had done with the No1 for many years before, and continued close ties with each other. But no- they had to go and suss out the Omarks too!

No4mk1 (T)- silly question... if my rifle (a purpose built single shot) is illegal in Canadaicon because of an L1A1 lower receiver, then how do you get to own one of the 220,000 odd L1A1's made by Lithgowicon? (even if it's not a Lee Enfield either) And how does a "well healed collector of things Enfield" have one?

Lithy- during the match today I had a couple of "soft strikes"- the firing pin barely marked the primer. Any idea what could cause that? The rounds fired the next time they were loaded... I was thinking maybe a bit of brass from under the extractor claw getting into the firing pin hole. Ever seen that before?
