    In which way overpriced? Please explain
    I have seen an all matching No4 MkI T built 1944 with british proof marks based in Germanyicon with correct wooden crate but not matching telescope-case sold on egun in for 7000€ +
    I'd have been more than happy to have been offered 5000€ for mine but now, if that's the new market price I'd be looking for more.

    "Rare" RAF issue, last 'serviced' at 34-Base Workshops Catterick September 1968. New Butt fitted to suit Snipers LoP.

    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...

    I would think one of the couple of well know specialist RFD's in the UKicon known for selling very nice examples of the 4T would have your example on their website for in excess of £7.5k, so I would indeed be looking for more than £5k if selling privately.
