De Lisle .45 inch bolt action ACP silenced carbine, 1943 (c)

This weapon was converted from a Mk III* Lee Enfield Rifle and includes a modified bolt and barrel. Accurate at ranges up to 250 metres, the De Lisle was fitted with a very effective suppressor which made it very quiet to use. This made it an ideal weapon for British Special Forces who used it during World War Two and the Malayan Emergency (1948-1957).
