Peter: You say "In my service I only ever saw two examples where a weapon was retro modified" - could I suggest a third example you have mentioned here previously? The stocking-up of L42A1s, where No4 Mk2 fore-ends, as well as being cut down and channel opened out for the floating barrel, were returned to MkI configuration.
When, as I understand it, a No 4 Mk 2 style fore-end [as used in Envoys and Enforcers] would fit the L42A1 perfectly well and with less trouble involved.Information
