Canadian battle rifles. Steve likely has much more information than I do. There was a web site/forum dedicated to the "Enfield", Pattern of 1914, Model of 1917, Remington model 20?? and the Remington model 720. Someone posted letter from the great C.D. Howe and Canadian army documents on it about using P-17. The history, between the wars Great Britain surplused out a lot of their stock of rifles.. So to help out GB, Canada at the beginning of the war sent them a 100,000 Ross rifles. We did a smaller lend-lease. This left us with a shortage, now. The government was offered a some P-14 from a dealer, but instead chose to buy the P-17 off the States. If GB had chosen the P-14 over the Lee-Enfield after the Great war, Canada was willing to convert the Ross factory over, but nothing came of that.
