Hello
I just aquired a Enfield Essential Agencies LTD .303 Serial# is in the 1500's.
It looks like it has shot very few rounds if any at all. I got it from the estate of a man who was in the RCAF. Two questions...One.. What is it worth? but more importantly how do i get a 5 or 10 round Magazine for it?
Thanks for any help

That serial number range makes it a commerical EAL. Any No4 10 shot magazine will fit...if you're looking for the correct one it should be "CA" marked. Value depends on condition and any modifcations. Can you post a picture? Ron
I will try and add some pictures.

Sorry. I have pic's on my computer... i just can't seem to get them on this post.

It's pretty simple. Look at the top of any forum and you'll see "sticky" threads for help marked in BLUE, which go over the process (with pictures) step by step ... ;)Quote:

If you still can't figure out how to post pics, then simply email them to me at badger@milsurps.com and I'll host and post them for you under your name in this thread. :)

As for your 5 round mags, they show up time to time. There were two on the table behind mine at the Calgary show. He didn't sell them either. They'll be there next year.
A little off topic but I ran the numbers through DND and there still remain 164 of the EALs in the CF Depots.
There also is a number of EAL profile rifles in the mapping section as well. They have the same configuration as the EAL but have Long Branch serial numbers.
Well don't just stand there. Go get em for us.
I'd love one.
I have seen a EAL drilled and tapped for a scope?? I read some had this done does anyone have any idea as to how many?
I did try and load up some pictures of my e.a.l. but i used my wife's new fancy camera. Too much resolution - I still live in a Dial up world, and it was going to take 32 hours to down load 4 pic's. I'm not interested in selling it, but i was curious as to what it might be worth???? ballpark. Sorry for the slow response but i don't sit in front of a computer very often.

There are EAL rifles in service with the Rangers. There was a recent colour photo of young man carrying his rifle at a shoulder arms position.
As for Warren's remarks about EALs in the mapping division of the CF, that is correct. When Mapping and Charting Establishment was surveying its *** off in the Arctic, the parties always had rifles for bear defence. One fellow was awarded a Chief of the Defence Staff Commendation for shooting a polar bear that was chasing another worker.
NSN 1005-21-808-9499 "Rifle Caliber .303" Twelve rifles were returned to Stores in '01. The other 7 assigned to AE1786 were returned previously. One in '94 after failing tech inspection, and the other six after '98 and before '01.
