    It was never part of the CES per-se so don't think that your CES is deficient if you haven't got one. Not available outside of ITDU and certain '…… those specialists with an operational requirement for blah blah blah….' Same as the IIW mount for the L34 SMG and carried the same VAOS cat. prefix. They were a very light grey almost wishy-washy colour that didn't look like phosphate to me but I'm probably wrong there

    I think I've mentioned it before but the S&B L13/6x 42 scope wasn't the first choice of telescope for the L96 rifle. That went to an American tele who's name I forget now. But they weren't prepared to alter certain features for a small (restricted quantity) order. As reliable, shockproof and MUCH cheaper too.

    Why is this infernal machine changing all my spellings to the colonial spellings. When I get back I think I'll get a gunboat over here and take these colonials and antipodeans back in hand!!!!!!!!!
