Either of the Enfields are excellent accurate rifles. The WW II models were reworked and re barreled for the NATO round in India and deadly at the range shown on the video.
Let's get off the trembling every time a “spraying AK 47” is mentioned.

At over 100 yards, the 47 is a piece of crap compared to the 7.62 NATO Enfield, (I have several).

The training is the issue. Our local police would have done little better on a moment's notice.

The officials were warned this raid was coming and should be held accountable for sending these rag tag boys to their destruction.

At close quarters the AK47 assault rifle is designed to win. The 7.62 and the 303 were both designed for longer range fire by trained riflemen. I fired both. The 7.62 is obviously an improvement, but it is still not designed to be an assault rifle.
