Mick,

001 and 184 both went out to Gloucester Plod on 19th Jume 1974.

Cheers,

Simon.

Jume? what the hell is Jume? And that's before a drink!!!!!

Geoff Hart's gun register has an entry for 14/4/1982 for Two 7.62mm sniper rifles from Police HQ Cheltenham Gloucester, No's 001 & 184.

They were both signed back to police HQ on the 30/4/1982.

My assumption is that they were both Enforcers but I have no evidence to support this.

Thanks Simon!

Research is a wonderful thing and it's nice to be able to confirm through collabarative evidence what is already known.

I was lucky enough to be able to prize Enforcer #104 away from Thunderbox a few years ago and subsequently obtained the following information about it from Mark:-

"Enforcer #104 was collected by South Wales Police on 26th April 1974 - one of a batch of 12 they collected on that date. Dyfed Powys collected 10 and Gwent Police collected 4 on the same date."

I also know the whereabouts of #102 which currently lives not too far away from me, but do not know anything about it's history.

Hi Stewie - so far as I'm aware the enforcers only normally came with one numbered mag - any ones which have more are generally believed to have been marked up after they, er, passed into civilian hands.

How underhand, I can't believe that anyone would do such a thing! I heard a rumur that someone has obtained some of Charnwoods tooling and will be manufacturing new barrels and magazines in the near future? Has anyone else heard this?

I have 644, its in great condition and shoots very well. it is one of the D&C issued rifles that was suposedly chopped and has not been banged together from parts, I am 100% sure its a genuine item.

[Gnr527]

I have No 329 which was collected by Devon and Cornwall on 7/2/1974.

When Mark Stevens provided me with this info he said the Enforcers were issued without bipods or slings, which were added later, if required.

The rifle came to me with Pecar Nr 92980 but I suspect this was not its original scope as an early forum thread by Alan de Enfield included the following:-

"The rifles were fitted with 'Pecar variable 4 - 10' telescopic sights. The only records available are serial Nos. A10382, A06532 and 72647 / 329."

If anyone has Pecar Nr 72647 I would be interested in hearing from them!!

Were any D and C Enforcers chopped?

I have 354 ex-Northanptonshire Constabulary. Complete with its (numbered to the rifle) commercial transit case, PH sights Pecar scope and the original laminated typed instruction card issued by Northamptonshire Constabulary. I bought it in the '90's when it was sold off. Shoots perfectly and is in excellent untouched condition. When I get time I will post some pictures.
