Very interesting although Nick's explanation didn't exactly "flow." Enfields have been an interest since I was first in Baluchistan in 1975. It was the weapon of choice in that area of the world where sightline were 10 miles up until the AK became ubiquitous. And in fact, when the US first armed the Mujahideen in 1979-80 they bought some 800,000 from Egypt (which turned out to be worn out).

Here I'm being given a Long Lee about 20 years ago.

I'll also post some Baluch with Enfields from 1978.
