In doing some searching for rifles used in the French- Indochina war, I ran across some info on the L1A1 "last" Enfield. It was used by Australian and Queensland troops in the U.S. Vietnam war. Mine is a '67 w/ no import marks.

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
C. S. Lewis
