What is the highest number No4 Mk2 "in captivity"?

[bradtx]

HRA466, The No.4 Mk.2 rifles were all nicknamed "Irish" (marketing?). This is incorrect tho' as all of the Irish rifles are in the PF series. There were also other contracts filled by Fazakerley.

Whether it's Irish or not there's no difference mechanically nor in value. A collector specifically looking for an Irish rifle may pay a small premium, however.

There really is no need to pay a premium for a "real" Irish conract rifle, as that run of 50,000 was the largest single run in the PF group. Get one from Barbados (IIRC), with a run of 10!
