    If you supply pics there are forumers who have vast experience and will give what info they can to you, Skennertons books are good, Strattons as well look up BDLicon supplies Brian Dickicon he has a good selection as well, if you have trouble up loading pics send them to Badger and he will assist you but just follow the guide and its pretty easy even for a computer clown like myself. Cheers

    This is a Lee Enfield No4 Mk1* manufactured in 1942 by 'Longbranch' in Canadaicon, it is the 126,061th rifle of this type that they made.

    The number 7114 means nothing to me and without a 'context' (ie whereabouts on the rifle the markings are) it will be very difficult to make a guess.
    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...

    I wonder if the "7114" is a NZicon rack number?
