Unissued rifles do exist, but your odds or being able to obtain one are about the same as a snowman's chances of surviving in the Sahara Desert. Rifles which aren't particularly beaten up, but still used - they can still be had, although rifles actually manufactured in England are becoming a bit more difficult to come by.
