Service for L42A1, Enforcer, Envoy and L39A1 Owners.

[Simon]

Folks,

I am in the fortunate position of being able to check out the serial number listings for the L42A1, Enforcer and L39A1. As a service to those who own these riflles I am offering to check a supplied serial against the recorded documentation and to pass on what info is available, conversion date, batch size, despatched to, etc.

I'll monitor this post and answer any queries in due course.

Cheers,

Simon.

Simon,

L39A1 UE70 A850
L39A1 UE72 A1025

Do you have the highest recorded L39 serial number? I think the highest recorded by Colin in Fultons was about 1214 ish from memory.

No pressure!

Rod,

Rifle A390 is recorded as having a completion date of 16th February 1970, on completion it was shipped to store at Donnington. Interestingly there is a small hand written annotation in the records next to your serial number which reads "Rework out 1-7-71".

Rifle R39814 was part of batch number 27 which consisted of 18 rifles. Records show a conversion date of 23rd September 1971, on completion it was shipped to store at Donnington.

Rifle 486 is recorded as being shipped to Northern Ireland Police (RUC) on the 12th March 1981.

Cheers,
Simon.

Thanks Simon, good work indeed!

I was given additional information regarding my two that they were both sent to RAF units, I think 1025 was RAF Barry (Glamorgan) and the other I can't remember, although I think I have the answer at home somewhere on a scrap of paper.

Thanks again.
