    My LE No.4 MkI* - Long Branch 1943

    Here I am again with another one of my great passions.
    I bought this through my local gun dealer because I really wanted a nice and perfect one.
    He found me a nice piece, coming from the Italianicon Navy reserves (like my SMLE) and virtually unused.
    The barrel has 6 grooves and is quite accurate.
    The trigger is simply great. Not light, as should be in any military rifle, but without any roughness and with a very clear break.
    The stock is L-size, so fairly comfortable compared to shorter ones (although I always use a little gel-filled extension)
    A beautiful rifle.
    It just doesn't give me the same emotions the SMELLY gives me, but it is slowly growing to me.
    I'll keep working it over every now and then.
