    wow, that's cool. I want that

    "...snip...
    Make: British Small Arms Company (B.S.A. Co.), Englandicon

    Model: Enfield SHT LE III (Short Magazine Lee-Enfield Mk III), Later Designated No.1 MkIII. Now in Sniper Configuration

    Serial Number: 40549

    Year of Manufacture: 1918. Modern Conversion to Sniper Configuration
    ...snip...
    Our Assessment: This Enfield SHT LE III has been converted to an Enfield Sniper. It has had scope bases added to the left side of the receiver as well as a raised cheek piece added to the top of the butt. A reproduction No. 32 MKI Scope & reproduction No. 32 MKI Mount have been nicely fitted to the rifle. A true Enfield Sniper is built on an Enfield No4 Mk1 and up graded by Holland & Holland. Although this rifle is a reproduction, it still looks pretty damn cool and should be able to slay targets for years & years to come.

    I like how they avoided showing pictures of how the flat mounts fit on a round action...

    Every L.E. I have bought that has the huge gap between the forwood and wrist face has also had very worn draws. Based on the pictures and the gap on this one I would bet the same. My guess 20 MOA shooter and someone paid that for it. Scratching my head....
