I have a friend who is a Lee Enfield collector who lives in FLA. He has a GRI, ISHAPORE, Sht LE, I** I P, III other side R^F over 1916, serial number 99059.

In Alan Petrillo's book "The Lee Enfield Number 1 Rifles" page 44, there is a photo of a Mark l ** IP, the royal cypher and Ishapore arsenal name where the rifle was manufactured

I'll have to find that book. Sounds about the same except mine doesn't have III on it. Serial number seems to be lower also and mine is an A series. Any Idea on what he values it at? Thanks

None that I can find anywhere

Thus my statement...I don't think it's quite the definition of "Rare" but a very scarce survivor of a long past time...
