The Royal Small Arms Factory gave the name "Enfield" to the world of small arms. It was also the home of the Apprentices who trained there to become the skilled craftsmen and production engineers, who created some of the world's finest infantry weapons. The famous "-EN" in the names of such weapons as the BREN, STEN, ARWEN, ADEN and RARDEN comes from the name ENFIELD.

PLEASE NOTE:
Unfortunately ALL personnel records of staff employed at the Royal Small Arms Factory were destroyed when the factory closed in 1988. It is therefore impossible for us to offer any help with enquiries concerning ancestoral relatives who worked at the RSAF pre-WW2.
