    Well Simon, you certainly are performing a welcome service with this post! Hope it doesn't become too much trouble for you. If there is ever anything I can help you with, please don't hesitate to ask.

    When you get a chance to get around to it, here are mine, (without the L39 I have my eye on):

    Envoy - E 352
    L42A1 - X34261
    Enforcer - 062

    Thanks so much.

    Best regards,

    Terry

    Terry,

    Rifle E352 is recorded as having been shipped to Fulton of Bisley on 21st July 1972.

    Rifle X34261 was part of batch number 13 which consisted of 18 rifles. Records show a conversion date of 04th June 1971, on completion it was shipped to store at Donnington.

    Rifle 062 is recorded as having been shipped to Somerset Police on the 04th March 1974.

    Cheers,
    Simon.

    Mick,

    The handwriting is quite difficult to decipher but it looks like Rifle E1 was shipped out on the 02nd December 1969 to a Mr Ilbey (possibly Ibsey) of Liverpool.

    Cheers,
    Simon.
