i have always had a interest in the war fought against Japanicon by Britishicon Commonwealth troops...in several books ..there has been refered to, that British troops who were issued the No.4 rifle were not happy,..and much prefered the SMLE..they were envious of Indian and Aussie troopies that packed the SMLE.....

i didn't think that the NO.4 rifle was issued in a very large scale to troops in the Far East...though i have seen several photo's of General Orde Wingate with a NO.4 rifle.....
