    False logic that totally ignores statistics. Like "most Nobel Prize winners are men, therefore men are more intelligent than women".
    By the time the No. 4 was in production, most P14s had been through a war, withdrawn from front-line service and relegated to the colonies, sold to the Frenchicon in Algeria, Home Guard etc. So the number of competitive P14s was already low in comparison to the number of as-new No. 4s, and today it is much worse. What I have seen as P14 relics is dire, but I had little trouble in finding an as-new No. 4.
