    Oh yes it is...!

    Have a look at this auction on Gunbroker, item 172181916.
    The seller says "This one was imported from Pakistan But is Not a Khyber Pass rifle ... "Has some flaws ... Dated 1904"....

    Lee Metford Rifle .303 Britishicon Cal Carbine Enfield : Curios and Relics at GunBroker.com


    Then I had a look at his other auctions and realised this is a one-man epidemic

    Yeah, look at their whole collection of Enfields. Funny that they advertise some as Khyber Pass rifles and some as 'non-shooter' only. I guess that they are just covering their bases.

    "Imported with a group of rifles from Pakistan but appears to be an original Ishapore Indian Enfield that has been "customized by indigenous personnel", hence we are selling this as a NON shooter, a Wall Hanger, for parts or display purposes only." -172122260

    They have a website that looks legit? I know of no one who has dealt with them, though.

    You have a very, very dry sense of humour; had me worried there for a second

    Oops. I just spotted that you had already spotted that.
