Looks like I'm going to go ahead and pick myself up a no4. mk1. You guys have provided a wealth of information, for which I am very grateful.

A few last questions:

Is there any significant difference between 2 versus 5 grove barrels in terms of accurate in a match setting/barrel life?

Are there any dates (pre war, during war, post war) that one should look for/avoid?

And I'm looking at one particular rifle with a C type 3 rear sight fitted. For matches is there a better sight you guys would recommend? Does anyone have a picture of the sight I could see perhaps?

Thanks again,

Alex
