British Pattern 1914 rifle converted to .303/7.92mm RIMLESS caliber

[breakeyp]

I am aware of several Pattern 1914 rifles converted to a test cartridge, .303/7.92mm RIMLESS cartridge.

This rifle is additionally interesting in that it was previously owned by Canadian John A. Belton who wrote about the rifle in the very first issue of the Canadian Journal of Arms Collecting, February 1963. The title was, "Two Experimental Pattern-14 Enfield Rifles of Note." The second rifle was fitted with a muzzle break and converted to a high velocity wild cat round by experimenter C. C. Meredth of Ontario Canada.

Belton was a well known Canadian cartridge collector and cartridge collecting editor of the Canadian Journal of Arms Collecting.

This ends the study of US Enfields and all will be returned to extended storage. I did not include arms with National Chinese, Chinese and a rifle with MkII replacement British manufactured stock. Is there interest?
