Savage Lend/Lease No.4 Mk.1 Enfield value?

[Brian Dick]

I sold one a couple of years ago that was new in the factory carton for $1500. If it's a "minty example, it's well worth $500. I've got one of the Turkish imports like J&G has left in stock. Mine were matching throughout and purchased off the top of Century Arms' pile and not the bottom like most of the ones J&G has. I sold 13 of them for $329 with no complaints.

Well, it's not like I have a burning desire for a No.4, I'd just like to have one. I'm not actively searching for one, this is just an opportunity that popped up. Most of the other's that pop up are beaters or Bubba'd. There's one floating around on the boards that someone painted gray. Bleh.

From what I've seen in my area, $500 is on the high side. I would think $300-$400 is more reasonable but I guess it depends on where you live and if the rifle is in super good condition.

500 seems high. If not import marked and in excellent condition maybe 400, if average and import marked 300. Bore should be clear and not dark for higher values, stock not refinished, and metal in original condition with finish not badly worn.

So there were more Brit soldiers carrying rifles marked US Property than there were Brit rifles?

Certainly not because although Savage-Stevens made more No.4s than any other manufacturer (more than a quarter of them), there were three English factories and one Canadian also producing No.4s - to a grand total of about four million. Plus there were still many No.1s in use with the British Army, and they were all British built.
