    Roy,
    I have it, but under strict instructions not to release it for obvious reasons.
    Simon I understand recieved it from Leeds Armoury under the same banner.
    It is always there for those wishing to check on a rifles integrity.
    Hope that helps
    Gil

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Right then. Having read this entire thread over two days I thought I’d add what I know about a couple of Enforcers. I only do this in the interests of adding to this valuable open-source archive.
    I currently possess Enforcer 251 (Teeside Police) with matching action, bolt, magazine and wood. The Pecar scope on it is from 259 (Manchester Police). I know the history because Gil has already kindly provided me with the details. It appears never to nave been fitted with a target sight or a bipod, which I understand is not unusual.
    I also happen to know that Enforcer 457 is still with the instructing staff at Greater Manchester Police where, up until 3 days ago, it was still being used in exercises.
    Again, I just add all this for the benefit of future readers...

    Cheers.
