Info needed on which type of lee enfield

[browningautorifle]

Welcome to the forum, this one is a good candidate for refurbishing to original wood. You'll need a couple of metal parts too. What shape is the barrel? Do you shoot this one?

Welcome to the forum, this one is a good candidate for refurbishing to original wood. You'll need a couple of metal parts too. What shape is the barrel? Do you shoot this one?

The weapon was last fired 4 years ago, so it still works. The barrel is in good condition but we have not been able to find any reference to similar barrel mounting on any other enfields we have looked at online. This raises the question if we´ve missed it or if it´s perhaps some sort of prototype or even a fake? And thanks

firstly it is total garbage and you need to send it to me.

it is a 1915 Lithgow (Australia) manufactured Sht LE (SMLE) no1 mk3, that has been sporterised.

the 3MD marking shows it was issued in/to? the 3rd military district, the state of Victoria.

the milled sight protector is era correct, the trigger has the star-A stamp indicating an early Lithgow made part. it should be on most of the original parts.

edit. is it still chambered in .303?

this should probably be in the lee enfield forum, hopefully one of the moderators will move it.

Sorry we don´t know anything about guns, what is a chamber .303?
