Is that a enfield in 22 or 410?

 

[jpm]

the chamber is definitely too big for 22

i cant tell on my phone, just a shadow.

 

[Son of Stoborough]

Blood stain?

 

[NavelOfficer]

Weren't some converted to .45-70?
I have some .45-70 reloads marked "Enfield Only" ...?

 

[Picton]

I think it's because it's apparently unfired? So, "cherry."

 

[BTSDOG]

Not a .22 with the firing pin hole in center of boltface.....

 

[Mike 53]

Need more pics...

 

[jpm]

I think its a No4 Mk2

Flobert. Parlor rifle to be specific.

There is a well there so maybe he removed the mag?

I thought he was trying to trick us with the shadow not showing much detail in chamber mag well area?
o well , im still mad at myself for not jumping on the new in wrap enfields Liberty Tree had ....

 

[Picton]

I really think he's just showing us the pristine boltface.

Alas, he's probably sitting on a beach sipping a mai-tai for a few days, so it may be awhile before we know.

I bet OP's wouldn't leave the forum hanging like this back when we had the neg rep button.

So am I bad for seeing the thread title and thinking "is she hot?"

 

[MJ1]

It wasn't a trick post just an unfired 1954 just like the 1953 I have. I'm kind of stuck on Enfields.

What are the odds a 66 year old would be "hot"?

 

[omega42]

What are the odds a 66 year old would be "hot"?

Greater than zero. Hotter than me the number gets bigger.

 

[majspud]

When was the last one made?

[413dan]

pop it.

 

[mac1911]

when was that? and how much?

8-10 years ago IIRC they where under $400. Same with the Samco Global swede 6.5 snipers for like $475. Was busy buying some US surplus

Looked something like this

Lee Enfield No.4 MKII F PF ( Irish Blondes) - Hyatt Gun Store

[Picton]

SMLEs were my first collecting interest. Twenty years ago I balked at paying more than $200 for a good one.

Yeah, not so much anymore...

Congrats sir well played indeed

 

[MJ1]

The 1953 has two shots through it and it ringed the bolt face.

 

[jpm]

I have a 1953 No4 Mk2 that is unfired as well. British Army contract with the tag still attached. Spent its life sitting in the armoury but apparently never let.

Here's an album of pics... No4Mk2

Still has grease in the barrel, I haven't had the heart to shoot it.
