| WOODEN CASE for No1 Mk3 Hi does any one have or know were I can get an origional Military wooden case for the No1 Mk3, or even some plans so I can make one. How many rifles did they hold. New Zealand like Australia used mostly the No1 Mk3, up untill they were replaced by the FN L1A1, before Malaysian conflict and our comitment to ANZUS and Vietnam. I left the Army in time before thay got the Styer. Kiwi6 ![]() |

| Kiwi6, This is prolly a long shot but, up until several years ago a gunshop in Sydney had hundreds of 303's from redtip trainers to still greased wrapped. So if anyone has a box hiding in their huge store room they probably do. The shop is "Horsley park gunshop" Their e-mail address is sales@hpgs.biz and their website is Horsley Park Gun Shop Hope this helps.

| Its the WOODEN BOXES that they came in that im after, I think they carried 5 enfields. These boxes are what the rifles were stored in when moving rifles from point to point by truck etc.Im looking for one to display my collection. Even a photo or plans would help, so I could make one. |
