Strange Enforcer

[Alan de Enfield]

Today came across a strange Enforcer action.

The action is marked up all correctly (serial number 706), still wrapped in waxed paper and has a label on it stating "DO NOT USE"

What's strange is that it is a Longbranch action (not an Enfield action), it has an 'action hung' trigger (ie Mark 2) but it has the cut-out slot in the bolt tramway for the bolt head. It does not have the spring loaded 'button' just in front of the charger bridge. If I remember correctly that should make it a Mk1*

So were RSAF Enfield looking to make No4 Mk1/3 Longbranch actions into Enforcers ?

Apparently only two Longbranch action Enforcers are known to exist - can anyone confirm or deny this ?
