R.E.L. Scope case C No. 8 MK. 2 for C No. 32 MK. 3 rifle telescope
This example is from Colin MacGregor Stevens’ Collection. It is in excellent original condition. Interestingly it does not have the rifle and telescope serial numbers stencilled on it as was usual with the British No.8 MK.2 cases. I have been informed by “Lee Enfield” of Milsurps.com that the Canadian cases were not numbered by Canada. Special thanks to Peter Crampton in Ontario, Canada, for making this example available.
