A Survivor from 1917

[nattcmars]

I picked this SMLE up from an auction yesterday and got it for a song and a dance. The auction house advertised it as having bolt issues because the bolt wouldn't close. They didn't realize an Enfield is a cock on close, nothing wrong with it. It by far is the nicest SMLE I have ever layed eyes on. There doesn't appear to have ever had been disassembled, the bore is mint, the bolt face is smooth as new, and not even wear on the magazine follower from cycling the bolt. I know there is some wear on the high spots of bluing but I wish I look this good in 100 years. Its non import marked and sometime in its life it was in Canadian ownership.
