Original Dhara made rifles have a certain collectibility and are of reasonable quality. However, most of the recent flush are low grade and poor quality. Many believe they are downright dangerous. This link shows an early copy:

Tetsau,

Did you mean Khyber Pass as in "King of the Khyber Rifles"? Somewhere
in the north west of the Hindu Kush. Neat movie, but as to the rifles being made in Darra I don't know even though it is in the Khyber Pass.

Kyber is a weird place. I've heard a lot of "you'll blow your face off" surrounding stuff from up there.

Amatikulu , i think you give these too much credence , but i will defer if you feel its truely justified ..............
i think we are looking at very poor copies , much less quality than the spanish copies of the S&W revolvers for example , and i think its fine the enfield collectors are filling their cabinets with these as an obscure variant as long as none acheive the status of legitimate "ENFIELD" , its not an indian RFI [ishapore] rifle and certainly not a POF pakistani rifle eather , both of which were made with british arsenal tooling and started at least under british guidance ,
these have a certain amount of interest in that we are currently involved in afganistan , but i dont think our servicemen can bring them home due to the recent vintage of their production , ---no you cant go by the date stamped on these
