I can. It has been sporterized. Complete stock replacement. Normal leaf backsight. No trace of a scope mounting. I fail to see the evidence that this ever was a sniper rifle. For me (not an Enfield expert, I just shoot them) this is a bog-standard sporterized Enfield. The starting price is a joke - it should have a couple of 00s knocked off. I may be wrong, and await enlightenment.
These people are clearly on a different orbitory planet to the rest of us. Have you ever read such a load of sheer horse manure? But someone on that different orbitory planet will buy it, have no doubt!
Most expensive Enfield I,ve seen, would normaly retail in the UK for around, 50-150 pounds
what the?
I sent the seller an e-mail asking him if the $20,000 starting bid was a typo or the actual starting bid. The response I rec'd was that the rifle is on consignment and the owner believes this to be the true value due to the history of the rifle. I hope it sells, it will make my collection worth millions!!
I believe it's a Parker Hale conversion. I don't know about Churchill... They did three grades of them and this is the classyest one. While a nice rifle, it's worth about what Patrick stated...that would be a pretty good deal. This owner was obviously snagged by a fisherman.
