    That would be about right Peter as the difference in diameter is very small, I only noticed as Its noticeable when next to a Enfield/Inglis Mk1 bipod. I've not seen many of the Early Lithgowicon type, probably less than 10. They must have replaced the Mk1 type with the Aussie version of the Mk3 (For those that havn't seen one, its the Mk1 type bipod with the non adjustable Mk2 type feet) around abouts Ser No A4000 to A7000 as I've a version in the A4000 region that is all matching with the Lithgow Mk1 and a all matching Mk1 upgraded model in the A7000 region. So, they could only really made a max of 7000.

    Anyone intrested in Lithgow Barrel production?

    Very late arriving at this thread but there were also the MK3 variants culminating in the MK2/3 slide.

    ZGB,the Aussie MKI slide with the rounded trigger axis pin machining is A22. I'm waiting for Kerry at Lithgowicon Small Arms Collection to get back to me to see if he can trace when the change over occured to the simplified square machining.

    Will try and do some pics Peter but work is taking all my time lately.

    Brit P , I think all the Monotype guns to the end of production (RB serial range) kept with the 'scalloped' rear end.

    ATB Kevin.
