What happened to P14 rifles made in US for Britain?

[Sentryduty]

It would appear all of them were dumped at sea as well, after use by the Home guard, some artillery schools and such.

We have had Home Guard marked Ross rifles appear for sale in Canada, I haven't researched them beyond what the sale advert said but appears that some may have survived.

My Ross sporter for example is market to a British marine unit and survived.

The Dutch dumped over 250,000 Kar98k's into the North Sea in the early 190's. Apparently they were dumped in order to make space at the storage site. The Base Commander ordered them dumped without notifying his superiors. The loss was discovered by an inspection team doing routine site inspections. It was not approved and there was nothing anyone could do.
