Nice! Those are difficult to find, as most of them went through a rearsenal process and were converted to DAO. I lucked out and found a minty, unconverted Mk 2 at a local gun store, just a few miles from the house.

Nice find.

Apparently the Royal Air Force ones mostly escaped the conversion to DAO.
