Quote: That Cogswell and Harrison is the only Enfield I've ever seen with a thumb cut-out. I wonder what the thinking behind it was, since a .404 is clearly not a stripper clip loader. Gas escape channel?
For the scared, hurried or ham fisted a thumb cutout helps make sure the top round is completely pushed down. I cut one in my MkX .458 as at one time or another I have fit all those catagories. It does work
