Just received a couple Enfields from my dad's collection that were in poor storage the past 50 years. Mainly caked on dust. I remember these in the gun room growing up in the '60's, and thought they were long gone or beat to crap by us when we were bored kids. Cleaned up a little and test fired with great results!
No1 Mk III from 1917 and No4 MK1 TR from 1945.
The No4 MK1 has matching numbers of U32356 on all parts except on butt near reciever band which shows 27940, and scope mount. The scope is No 17262 with scope mount of L32517. I can not see a * after the MK1, so I am thinking it is not a No4 MK1*.
Looks like somewhere along the line, the scope and mount were installed from wrong gun?
All screws on scope are original untouched and staked. Scope is a little cloudy though.
Can anyone explain the mismatch in numbers, and what should I do about cloudy scope?
Thanks
