Stupid Question

[Alan de Enfield]

There were 4 models (that I know of) that were based on No4 actions that had 'shortened / sporterised' wood work and were all manufactured by the original factories, these are the :

L39A1 (Military issue 'target rifle')
L42A1 (Replacement for the No4T)
Envoy (Civilian version of the L39)
Enforcer (Police issued version of the L42)

The Enforcers were manufactured by Parker Hale / Enfield and used a variety of Actions, both new and used, including Long Branch (pictured) when The Enfield factory ran out of their own actions.

The Police Enforcer used the Parker Hale 2-piece scope mounting system where the rear mount used the original rear sight mountings, but the front mounting used two holes drilled into the receiver ring.

HOWEVER they are all in calibre 7.62 NATO and not 303, BUT they are all 'factory made' 'sportered' Lee Enfields.

The 'sportered versions' of the No4 with front sight ramps are not to my knowledge factory manufactured as non were made using anything but the normal front sights, but maybe with a 'tube & ring sight' to replace the blade.

Examples of my Enforcer & L42A1
