    Generous headspace spec .......as cheap, low usage Police rifles.............. Like the Enforcer. Call me a sceptic Thunderbox but...........

    I'll tell you all what I'll do first thing next week. I'll make a written request to the Indian Army Liaison Officer to see if he can find out for us. Wait out!

    It's interesting to recall that the Indian Army were the first to place a firm order for 60,000 7.62mm L8 rifles in 1965. The order was cancelled due to a spot of bother with a neighbour along her western border. And guess what the CHS spec for these rifles was? You've got it in one!

  2. Thank You to Peter Laidler For This Useful Post:
