    I ran it one time for seven days and then pulled it, too many Enfield's listed at the same time;

    Look Hambone you didn't want it so leave be. There's nothing wrong with it except the replaced swivels.

    Peter those initials do not look fresh when you see them in person. I think maybe Brian may have some good guesses, Ray

    I thought this thread was about the value of a No. 4 1942 Maltby. You didn't believe me when I told you $650-1000 (tops). The gentlemen here confirmed it. I believe it important to the thread, which you started, to fully address the question you posed to the collecting community here. I think that bids at a national (really international) firearm auction that runs for a week is responsive to your inquiry beyond conjecture and informative helpful to the rest of the posters here who freely provided you their opinions and knowledge, in good faith. I also believe, again, as I previously stated, that given what you are asking, and the representations you made, required from the beginning that the replaced swivels be mentioned at the outset.
    Cheers,
