The Last one I saw in the UK Market was the Charnwood Ordnance Sale one, IIRC it sold for £4000. Picture of another in use where i am not sure.

That's amazing............... That bloke faffing around with the rifle is (the late) WO2 Harry Weeks who as a civillian, became an Armourer instructor at Carlisle, teaching Brens, L4's and the M1919/L3 Brownings. A very facetious man and nowadays would be described as a bit of a verbal bully. But bygones be bygones.

I'll send this pic up to The Armourers Assn.

Tankie, your dad will know him............ Not many ear-boxes/defenders there is there?
