Stick with it. It will go if anyone has any sense about them

Thanks Gil. If it sells, great. If not, that's ok too.
Best to all. David

I am sure I am not alone when I say this, that original Enforcers/L42A1's all present and correct and not shot out are at the moment in a very enviable situation and command what they are worth.
As said earlier, I am biased being brought up by both, and can only give my judgement as an old man now (well relatively speaking) anyway. Can still get down in the prone position without the need of a hoist or wheelchair assistance, and remain there for a long time in all weathers..................well until I'm picked up anyway

Isn't 432 somewhat high for a "double ovoid"??
And has it been established whether they are legit Enfield "L39's" converted to "Enforcers" or post factory remarked "L39" rifles??
I ask mostly because I can remark an L39 to "Enforcer" myself for way less than that.

Simon was able to verify the serial number and original destination force of both the scope and the rifle. They are rarely seen for sale.

#432 still for sale at Collectors Source. Anyone else have any thoughts about the originality of this rifle?
