    Case Spare Valves No.4A, No.4G & No19

    I have recently been looking at the above spare valve cases of which the linings are nearly always missing on the surplus market. While the UKicon made version of this spare valve case appears to have had several variations of liner to hold the valves, including a pull-out foam rubber liner, the Canadianicon made version appears to have had a metal tray, pull-out-liner, with valve holder/bases fitted.

    I wondered if anyone here has one of these Canadian made spare valve cases with the original metal tray, pull-out, liner, please? If so I wondered if we could have some more detailed photos of this liner and also some dimensions, please, posted?

    Below are a few pics that I found online of what I believe to be the Canadian made version of this spare valve case.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    Thank-you Sapper740. On your example the tray looks as if it may be made from aluminium or is it plated steel? Can you tell me the height of the tray, please? Thanks
