Norrie Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Just collected this today...and love it already...it's in fantastic condition and more than likely it's never been issued...Imported from Canada by Ryton Arms in 1999....by the thousands.....therefore has a good deactivation...cocks and dry fires... It has a Mk1 sight. and came with a dated 1944 sling. All in all I am VERY pleased with it, and it will look great once its in its new home with the mannaquin. Thanks to @Fred Karno's Army for the great information on it... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Hi @DAK D For the money i'm getting it at..( less than the Longbranch ) when i do buy it, .I'm just going to buy it sight unseen...like I did with the Longbranch, and that was super cheap....I've known the guy for a couple of years, hes a gent, and is happy to let his deacts go for what he paid for them...even tho that was many years ago...TBH...I offered £50 more than he wanted for the Longbranch...he says...too much money...BUT, I'll take...XXX amount .......he's happy....I'm ecstatic..........

hanswolf1224 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 long branch number 4's are high quality. workmanship was top notch. i had one dated the same and it was matched, mag and all. it is a shame when any item that is historical is destroyed. i am totally against it.
