Lee-Metford MkI*

[Ridolpho]

Thank's A square 10. When I started buying Lee Enfields I decided to try to find some of the earliest and the latest. This one is, of course, my oldest. My newest is a 1965 Ishapore 2A1- 76 years apart but cut from the same cloth.

Looking at your rifle again, and seeing that the re-struck serial number,has been barred out, I would say that 1891 on the receiver and barrel,is not a date but a new serial number, that has been added in an unusual position.
