Enfield mystery loop

[Alan de Enfield]

I saw a no4 mk1 enfield recently with a sling swivel where that loop usually is, what does this mean?

The 'loop' is an integral part of the trigger guard - I think you'll find that the sling swivel has actually replaced the front trigger guard screw (commonly called the KIng Screw)
This is what Patrick was refering to on his comment re the No8.

Heres a pic of my Enforcer showing the swivel & the 'loop'
