    As nice as the 'story' is there is an element of wishful thinking.
    After the war the UKicon MOD sold it off into the UK civilian gun market (hence the UK civilian proof-marks), the some time after it was sold to a dealer in the USAicon - does it have any import marks ?
    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...
