Yes sir. The rifle is original as is all the equipment.
Mr Paragon man, nice display of kit there and being original makes it even better..The packet of smokes would make this man a very slack sniper...wouldnt go down to well a smoking bush!!! lol. Cheers for posting Terry
Super nice display. Thanks for posting. Does a body good ... except of course if you were on the receiving end of that rifle.
Whats the (bakelite?) container next to the grenade, please?
That would make sense. Good for E & E.
Thanks.
It was intended to be used in the open without need for defensive cover (i.e in an offensive role), as was less destructive than the Mills bomb. It did have a slight problem due to the large steel ball in the fuze mechanism, which would fly out at random and could hit the bloke that chucked it It was declared obsolete in 1947.
