;) Enfield Rifles

[KBCraig]

The only one I have left is a Savage Lend/Lease. In very good condition.

I can't tell if the metal has been repainted or is original finish, but that wood is way better than "VG". It's Excellent+, from what I can see.

Bought these eight or nine years ago and never had time to try them. Mirror bores all matching MkII's

Oooh, blondie!

Is that an actual S-51 stock, or just taking advantage of a cheek rest?

It's interesting.... I took this picture of my No1 Mk3 rifles today. The top one is a 1915 BSA that's mostly matching except for the the bolt and the bottom one is a 1918 Enfield manufacture. Looking at the two rifles the BSA is different... It's like the BSA is heavier on the top sections of the rifle. It's interesting, there are subtle differences.

My 1917 Pattern 1914

My extremely matching 1942 No4 Mk1 Savage and my 1945 BSA No5 Mk1

The P-14 does utilize the same .303 cartridge, so it does deserve a mention in the Enfield thread.

Aside from the removed volley sights, this P-14 is just as it left the factory with original parts.

I have been on Northeastshooters for a few years now and never realized the milsurp thread was here,

I will post some pictures of my Enfields, I collect WWII and BPD (Boston Police) guns.

I just picked up a No 1 with EY markings on it, meaning it was specified as a grenade launcher on Military Surplus Collectors Forums there is an article that says they are safe to shoot, not all were crap. The bore on it is nice and tight and it is bright, it is an Ishapore and while an original stock it is not original to the gun.

Right now I have 1 No 1, 3 No 4's and a No 5, as well as an extensive collection of US, Russian and German WWII rifles and handguns.

and one of my Number 4's

Karl, Martin and Ben thank you for the post. I knew there were more Enfields out there.

Here is a package deal I got from a Cabella's in Mississippi a few years ago. Absolutely new and both covered in cosmoline. Sales man was telling me about the #4T and said he would throw in the Remington for another $300. I couldn't get the plastic out fast enough.

You are killing me! Why don't these things happen to me?

When I get back to NH, I'll pull my girls out for a family portrait, and share.

Well, dayumn. I didn't realize there was an NES forum besides Mil Surp Collectors until now!



So, welcome aboard the forum that counts! Looking forward to some good stuff.
