    I guess my concerns with it are is I'm just afraid of getting a POS rifle that looks good.
    I figured either import marks or not as long as it shoots good and holds it's value is all I'm concerned about.
    I've heard bad things about certain importers, and I'm just not familiar with any Enfield importers.
    I've only ever bought us milsurp and knew how to avoid them with those.
    I was a late comer to foreign milsurp too, but I've rarely seen anything I'd call a "dog" in the Enfield world, though I'm sure they exist. They are my favorite milsurp and I suspect you'll be very happy. Feel free to PM me and I can give you me email to share photos. I sometimes struggle posting pics on forums too.

    Here are some photos of my 1942 Lithgow rebuild

    Here are a few photos of the markings on mine. I forgot to get a photo of the nosecap but it should match too.
