Plain jane no4s came in crates of multiple rifles, I think it was 10 but I can't be sure right now. Mil arms' Alan Kerr makes reference in his displays to a crate of sequential no4s he bought which were imported from Europe about 20 years ago
Hi, Rob (and others interested in this thread)...

I don't wish to appear as a "know-it-all" with regard to Rob's statement about No 4s not being issued in individual transit cases...but here goes...

My transit case has the original stenciling:

"1005-21-103-1203
Rifle, Complete,
As per EIS 3023
dated Dec 54/
Qty 1
Nov 58 25 COD
Ser No 1L-8689"

BTW, I paid $200.00 for my Long Branch No 4 Mk 1*(mint) in March of '93...the transit case cost me $19.95 from Things Military (Calgary).
