Hello all, bought my first Enfield this weekend, its a 1942 Longbranch no4 mk1* serial 16L2187 with matching bolt (dont see any other serials on other parts) has a micrometer style rear site, groved rear handguard, and a 5 grove barrel. riffling and crown are beautiful, only real metal wear is on the buttplate and muzzle(im assuming from the bayonet), i beleive the sling is wrong thou, alot of ones of seen im research have leather.

ive been able to find some info on it, but not much (i think all my searches are omitting the * or only bring up savages) So far ive learned its canadian built, the mk1* had a simpler bolt removal, but otherwise not a whole lot, one big mystery to me is the stamp on top of the barrel, i think it might be the savage arms stamp, if so is it normal to have savage parts on a longbranch rifle, i know this was common with alot of other milsurps.

thanks for any help or info.
