Enfield No. 1 Mk. 3 BSA 1940 .303 Great Britain England SMLE Lee Enfield

British Enfield No. 1 Mk. 3 made by Birmingham Small Arms in 1940. According to Ian Skennertons Lee Enfield book, 59071 No. 1 Mk. 3 rifles were built in 1940. At that time, the British lost most of their heavy equipment and a lot of small arms at Dunkirk. England was desperately short of rifles. Forty-two factories were building parts for Enfields during this time. They put together rifles with the parts they had. Not many were matching.

BSA started building No. 1 Mk. 3’s to equip troops as the new No. 4 Mk. 2 production ramped up. BSA continued to produce No. 1 Mk. 3’s until December of 1941.

This rifle was a produced in 1940 and is an example of these desperate times. The bolt does not match. This rifle comes with a sling and magazine cut off.

Enfield No. 4 Mk. 2, 1955

Dated,

Excellent

Condition, With Sling and Cleaning Kit, .303,

This is a British Enfield N0. 4, MK. 2 , .303 caliber made at Fazakerley in 1955. It is very close to the last Enfield made. This rifle is in excellent condition and looks unfired.

The rifle has matching numbers and an excellent, bright bore. It comes with a sling and cleaning kit consisting of an oiler and pull through located in the butt stock trap of its beautiful blonde stock.

It is not an “Irish Contract” rifle but it would be considered a contemporary. You will be hard pressed to find a better No. 4 Mk. 2 than this one.

Sellers note-It looks new~bpb
