My enfield no4 1941 Maltby. what's is story?

[Roger Payne]

I was invited in there with Edna's niece & great nephew when they closed the place down. It probably would have been around 2007. It looked little different to in the photo's shown. They'd been duped into letting most of the more interesting stuff go for a song, although I did manage to buy some spares from them & paid them an honest price. There were boxes & boxes of screws, springs, No4 butts strewn all over the place. Fortunately the chap who got in before us missed a few 4T transits chests. I was offered all of the SKN actions, but didn't want them. I gather the police got involved eventually as some of the local kids were found running about with them...! By coincidence they ended up stored with a friend who was a dealer in the gun quarter in Brum. I cleaned up a few for him so that they were fit to sell on, but I've no idea what happened to the vast majority. There was a lot.
