Canadian Rangers Lee-Enfield No. 4 rifles

[Ganderite]

i talked to a ranger at the stampede who said they got 200 new in wrap rifles from the Irish contract set, and that a couple of guys in his unit each got one a while back

DND bought about 1300 of those Irish rifles. That was a shockingly good & fast decision.

No.

Rangers are not trained in any combat tactics, and have no use for a bayo, especially a WW2 era spike bayo that wouldn't even make a good camp knife.

Ranger Lee Enfield rifles are for hunting and predator defense, not for fighting the Russian hordes.

Ummmm not entirely true...
but mostly true.

Both the Lee Enfield and its proposed replacement have ten round mags which suggests that their rifles are meant for more than just bears and hunting; most pure hunting rifles have a capacity of only three to five rounds. Having said that, it's unlikely that any Rangers would need to lead a bayonet charge through the snow at any polar bears after firing ten rounds of .303.
