Did Savage No4 go to India?

India made No4's at POF. I image many we see in news photos are those as well as ex-British/Canadian/US made ones.

Ishy action - Indian style, part II

Other than the Bren(s) all SMLEs.

They look like members of the Indian Cadet Forces, other than the brown skins (and shorts), those pictures could have been taken at my school in the 1950s.

Did you bother to look past the first post in the thread by Bonny

[Peter Laidler]

Brunom asked why the screw was there and the fore-ends didn't seem to be cracked. I would imagine that it is just a precautionary measure to put the screw through. Not just if they're cracked but to strengthen and prevent it in the first place. A bit like the fore-end strap on the rear of the No4 Mk1 type fore-ends. They probably ain't cracked but just to make sure..........

Re the Bonny thread on 'the other' forum 5th Batt. Are you saying that there's another forum? Surely not!

Watch those buggers peter, they just took a vote on one of those forums, for me to tell you that you ramble.
But thats to be expected from bloody colonialists.

Oh, deary me Muffer.......... I'm getting upset now........ Are they saying that I go off at tangents? That's odd because when I occasionally apologise for taking such deviations I get thanked. Not often, but......

Someone on a Sterling SMG forum elsewhere said that I was taking crap about the Sterling/L2A3. Strange that......, since I edited the old - and eventually re-wrote the EMER! Oh well......

[muffett.2008]

Pete, if you read some of the interesting snippets you would either crackup laughing or just crack up.
I like my hair on my head so it's all taken with a grain of salt, 'specially when your own kind start stirring...........They are probably just bored
