What’s your Lee Enfield Holy Grail?

[No4Mk1(T)]

I would have taken either. I have seen and owned Faz, 47 in near new.

What part of the country did you find that piece?

Ever thought about selling it?

Is that the only unisued #5MK1 you have seen?

Any pictures available?

I assume it has the metal cap on the forestock.

I got this rifle about 20 years ago here on Vancouver Island.
I think I paid about $300.00 for it back then. To date it is the only one like it I have seen but on the Island the number of Milsurps available is a bit limited.
I did at one point consider selling it…for about half a second but dismissed the thought as just plain foolishness.
As for photos OK here you go;
