    Does anyone have a photo of the milled flat just behind the barrel reinforce ring LH side on a Long Branch "0L" or "1L" (pre- Mk.1*) series rifle?

    That area looks a lot different on 3L2888.

    Complete tooling change (Probably cam driven profiler) would be VERY odd, this early on. Toolroom preproduction samples or ??? seem quite likely, as Thunderbox and Peter Laidlericon surmise above.
