Hi, I'm new to collecting and looking for a good example of WW2 Lee Enfield.
Can anyone please help me identify history of the attached riffle according to the markings and serial number?
Cheers

Welcome to the site .. :)
If you want to compare the Savage manufactured Enfield you postes a pic of, against an "all correct" as originally issued one, go to the United Kingdon - Milsurp Knowledge Library (click here) and view the 82 picture photo gallery montage for the 1943 Savage No.4 Mk1* Enfield Rifle (click here).
With thanks to Advisory Panel member Lance, there's also a rare "all correct" 1942 No.4 Mk1*(T) Savage Sniper Rifle (less scope) (click here) .....
Lance's article, accompanied by a detailed 165 pic photo montage, speaks to this example as being one of approximately 3,400 Savage rifles converted by Holland and Holland and re-barreled with an Enfield 5 groove barrel, however, it was never fitted with a matching No.32 scope.
Hope this helps... :)

Doug
