        Thanks alot mate! (appreciate the pm as well)
        But, drill purpose.. meaning this rifle never saw action and was ONLY used for drill purpose?
        Or might it been used in "action" or at least by a private in service, and then later, maybe post war, where converted to a drill weapon?

          I like your setup Btw the Enfield is a nice shoot rifle, the sight is very good for targeting....

            Drill Purpose meant that it was taken out of front line service to be used for example by a training regiment or company. Perhaps the barrel was worn out, or it could have other problems where they no longer wanted it to issued to combat troops. It also looks like it might be missing a rear trigger guard screw. Another source that you may want to try is (Numrich) Gun Parts Corporation which also has a web site. FP

                      Marstar

                      Hello,

                      I have delt with Marstar many times and the best way to deal with them is by Phone. Just a helpful hint since some times they are a little slow to answer emails.
