What’s Your Opinion on This One?

[Ovidio]

Dear all.

A guy, not far away from me, sells this old lady.
I have zero knowledge about it.
He asked for 350€ a while ago, now free offer.

I’d be thankful for any opinions and suggestions.

Snce its free...

[browningautorifle]

Free would be the correct price. Don't shoot it just wall hanger and it'll be perfect.

[Ovidio]

That bad huh?

[Sapper740]

Yes, that bad. Did you see how some of letters are stamped backwards and the casting marks on the hammer? As they say in Monty Python's movie "The Holy Grail" - "RUN AWAY!"

[Ovidio]

Yes. That one picture made me worry a lot. I didn’t remember that there were also the Khyber rifles around…
Thanks all.

[Alan de Enfield]

Certainly a Khyber Pass 'special'.

It is the letter "N" that they seem to be rarely able to make correctly - look at the "N" in "Enfield" it is like an inverted, mirror image..

The 1st thing I look for on any Enfield (No1, No4, No5, and even the 'old' Enfields) is the spelling and the orienation of the letters / numbers

How about this one ........................

G inverted (and it should be GRI)
Look at the "LE" in SHTLE

[browningautorifle]

How about this one ...

None of the marking on this one make sense, everything wrong.

[Ovidio]

Now, looking at the pictures on my pc... I get the shivers.
