Did the early enfield MK4#1*T snipers have the extra sling attachment?

Actually the king screw sling swivel WAS NOT originally fitted to the No4T snipers. Fitting of the king screw swivel commenced in @'43/'44.

IIRC Laidler discusses this in the "Armourers perspective".

Earlier guns were then refitted as they became available.

I didn't realize that ....

Thanks for the update ...

So, based upon that informaiton and if it were mine, I'd probably leave that rifle in it's current condition...
