    World War II British BSA No. 4 Mk I (T) Enfield Bolt Action Sniper Rifle with Matchin

    So made my second Lee Enfield purchase, and the first was commensurate with the funds paid. Hopefully this one is a bit better purchase (I will post what pics I have, but will not have more until the rifle lands in Canadaicon), It came from the recent Rock Island Auction, and although I am new to the board and LE's in particular, I have been collecting for 20 years. Here's what I have and hopefully I hear some constructive feedback

    World War II Britishicon BSA No. 4 Mk I (T) Enfield Bolt Action Sniper Rifle with Matching Numbered Scope

    This BSA manufactured No. 4 Mk I (T) Enfield sniper rifle is fitted with a No. 32 Mk 3 scope and mount. "M47/1943/AK1335/TR" marked on the left of the stock socket. The comb of the stock has a hardwood cheekpiece held on with two wood screws. Standard blade front sight and absent rear sight. Matching serial number "AK1335" marked on the bolt handle and "1335" stamped twice on the bottom of the forend. The scope tube is marked "TEL.STG.No 32 Mk 3/OS.2039A.(logo)No19384" and also has a red painted "W" and a blue painted "B", with the standard post and cross-hair reticle pattern, and fitted in a cast scope mount matching serial numbered "G31222" on the left. The matching number to the scope "19384" is stamped on top of the buttstock at the wrist (below two other crossed out numbers), and "S51" is stamped on the bottom of the buttstock indicating conversion by Holland & Holland. Includes a period brown leather sling, reproduction brown leather scope lens covers, and cleaning rope in the butt compartment.

    Very fine, retains 75% plus wartime arsenal applied dull blue finish with a few small areas of light pitting and traces of black painted finish. The wood is also very fine with defined edges, some light handling marks, and crisp stampings. Mechanically excellent. The scope and mount are both very fine with some light spotting on the tube and clear optics.
