The .410 was very common, they were converted by England, Australia and India in a couple of patterns - one was full stock and the other with a cut down fore-end. The Indians used them for Riot Control while the Australians and British used them as sporting guns. The Australian cut down versions were converted post war with receivers drawn from store, a cut was made in the receiver and a bead sight welded on. They are not uncommon and are considered a variant within the Enfield family of guns.
