Can't import LE receivers into the US???

These would be 1955 Long Branch production? There was a whack of them around at one time. Lovely receivers, but for that blasted MkI* mod.

It would be interesting to know why SAL/Long Branch didn't embrace the Mk.2 body, or at least the Mk.2/1 conversion. Perhaps it was felt the rifles would not be in service long enough to justify the change over(?)
