    Sheesh, I wish I had a dad like you - all my dad gave me were a thick ear and some questionable DNA, which are not much use at the gun range :P

    I did note someone making a comment on a GB listing that some people had found rust when unwrapping No.4 Mk.IIs. It sounds a little like scaremongering to me, but has anyone else heard of this?

    I have not heard that, but if any of you have one wrapped, run, don't walk, and open it up like you are a 6 year old on Christmas morning and report back to me. I will leave mine in the wrap just in case this info is wrong!!

    I'm with Peter and enfield 303t, I plan on leaving my wrapped and unissued Mk2's alone. Besides, I can use the other three for shooting !
