Can someone help me identifying this Enfield?

Here'a a picture

No problem thats "Shir-le" I know her well !!!!!

A 1918 manufactured Short Lee Enfield - model MkIII* (Mk3*)
The nomenclature was changed in 1926 and the SHTLe Mk3* became the "No1 Mk3*"

Thanks! that was fast! How can I find the manufacturer? There's no BSA or Enfield or Lithgow markings there

Here's a link that will help with official markings. :thup:

It's a site provided by Amatikulu with some good information to bookmark for the future.

Also, check the MKL for a similar rifle complete with details and photo montage ...

Well I'm going with NRF there on the reciever body.

Weren't SSI and NRF rifles marked this way?

I'm going with SSA.
Look to the left side of the receiver near where the cocking piece sits when the bolt is closed.

The crown doesnt look right to me , but then again I am on the train travelling home and on my fourth can of murphys.

(must of been the Murphys, looks ok according to the Enfield bible)

here'a a picture of the rear left side of the receiver

thanks for your help guys

SSA it is. Stands for Standard Small Arms

Congrats, you have a peddle scheme rifle. I have a 1918 SSA too :)
What sort of condition is it in?

If ya google peddle scheme you'll find heaps of info out about them.

Heres a thread about it
Peddled Scheme

Its vg to exc, nice shiny bore, strong riflings, awesome blue finish but MISSMATCH bolt... Are those peddle scheme rifles worth usually more than the more ''regular'' Enfields like BSA, lithgow and Enfield?

thanks
