    According to Edwards, of India's Enfields, small numbers of service rifles were converted to .22 trainers. From 41' to 51' the markings were the same as the Britishicon with the exception of the RFI conversion date on the left side of the butt socket. He describes the use of a magazine with the follower removed and the side of the case marked .22. No loading platform style mentioned. He goes on to say the new production after 1951 markings changed to 5 lines on the right side of the butt socket and were purpose build .22's. I have a 68' dated purpose built Ishapore .22 and it has a magazine with no follower and no loading platform. It is also devoid of any dowels in the areas indicated above.
