With thanks to Advisory Panel members Lance and Wheaty, we've added a new entry to the Australia - Milsurp Knowledge Library (click here)

A rare 1944 No.1 Intermediate Shortened & Lightened Rifle - Serial XP53 "Experimental" (click here) .....

This is one of only 100 rifles manufactured in Australia during 1944 for Army trials.

There's an interesting associated thread in our Commercial Auction and Sale "Gossip" (click here) forum titled Reference Thread - Australian Arms Auctions - May 4th, 2008 (click here) .

This thread contains a post regarding one of these rifles (Serial XP45) that just sold at the Australian Arms Auctions on May 4th, 2008 for $7,000 AUSD.
