    Flight RN,
    Having trawled the lists extensively with a fresh pair of eyes, namely Roger P, there are several rifles with that exact number but the prefix is different. I think they wrote it down run, and thereafter it went to print and left.
    If the new owner surfaces on this site we can then give out the correct info. Thanks for raising it..

    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.

    On Rock Island Auction's own site (linked below) they list the rifle as sn: D32562 in the summary but G32562 in the long description, the G prefix may be a typo when they mean it to be D or vice versa. Is D36562 on the list perhaps?

    Well there is a D32563 and an M32562 or A32562.
    It needs a read of the rifle serial number by someone who has passed an eyesight test by the looks of it.
    No trace of D36562.
    It does from this distance look an honest L42A1 but who knows. If anybody is on the phone to Rock Island perhaps ask them as "Firearms Registered Dealers" to confirm the number of the rifle anything between A to Z will do. I would hope their paper records are spot on!!!! lol.
    Sorry best I can do I'm afraid.

    Hi

    I still have my A32562, so it shouldn’t be that one!

It sounds rather like the No4T's that could be bought for £30 complete because nobody wanted them, don't you wish we could travel through time.???
    Yes, my friend has Enforcer no.727 which was assembled by Barbican and made with a .22LR barrel.

    I have no. 298 which was issued to Durham Constabulary on 3 Jan 1975

    T32033 is on there
    AS3079 is NOT on there

    There is an AS number quite close to that one, but doesn't end with a 9
