Not up to your level but here's some of my bits & bobs.

Shamu nice roll of 2X4. Wish I could find some. A 10 foot roll from Canada was $40 a few years ago.

I just got an MA marked oiler but not as polished as yours.

Cheers

I actually have 2, one in the butt of the No4, the other in the No1 Mk3. Not technically correct but the later Bakelite & plastic ones crack & leak, the brass ones don't.

Then there's this little toy, the "adult lawn darts adapter"!

These are not military; but the first civilian map's of France at the end of the war. Showing damaged roads and blown bridges etc.
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!

Sorry but no. I don't use the SARCO brackets even though I have two on hand. I do have and use several of Roger Payne's fine brackets as they require little or no fitting.

I believe I sent you the answer and noted PM sent in a previous post.

...Cheers..

Not Enfield in the strictest sense of the word, but it does take a Bayonet so. . .

A pukkah Sirhind tool with mine probing attachment.

& then there's the street-legal hunting magazine.

I have six five round magazines for some reason and one made from an L42 magazine. Nice E-tool by the way.



Always handy to have extras.

Cheers

I don't remember the rifle grenades being that large but then it was fifty years ago and half a world away.
