Irish Contract No4 mk2

[Frederick303]

Capt . Laidler,

I acknowledge your disagreement and it has given me grounds for doubt, as I have no reason to doubt you in any way.

I have since been able to find a number of the early PF31x,xxx rifles in England, some of which went through Parker Hale. Of course I do not have access to files of the recovered serial numbers form various far off places. But it is sufficient to say that some of what you have said has been verified.

In any case I can only work with what official sources have said. according to the defense archives the actual sales contracts and serial numbers will be available between 2021 and 2026, so in ten years the dispute will be resolved for good, once those records are open.
