Where have the good No5 rifle all gone?

I lost count of how many I exported back to the UK ten plus years ago to one dealer in particular in West Sussex. Many were pretty much excellent to "as new" because that's how they were originally imported to the USA from the UK prior to 1968.

That sends a shiver down my spine, as if that West Sussex dealer was Worthing Guns or Arundel Militaria, then I can pretty much say that they would have all ended up being cut and de-activated
