35's and 6's are common enough but remember the pacifist movement that came back to london from germany crying PEACE IN OUR TIME .. the brits got us to stop production of LE's as it may upset the AXIS powers ( appeasement and we know how that goes)

by 38' the japanese spread was fast and scary and so lithgow went full bore again despite what the brits wanted .. a lot of old rifles where sold off in that period

others dismantled for spares , sad eh .. oh we'll live and learn ( appeasement dont work )
