    I was looking to correlate the BA assembly / short CES number against the content of the chest and the lid labels - I have observed 3 different lid labels for the war years that each should have a relevant BA number. Any head start on this comparison Alan de E or others?

    The No4T had a different stores (BA) number for each variant (long butt, short butt, Mk1 scope, Mk2 scope etc etc)

    Hopefully the attached extracts from the "Vocabulary of Army Ordnance Stores" will give you some new 'numbers' to play with.

    Note that these are for No4T Mk1/2, No4T Mk1/3, and No4T Mk2 rifles

    Stores Numbers marked on one page only - I'm sure you can find them on the other pages.

    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...
