MC's in! This is a PF192xxx example dated 3/50, well-used but all matching. Finest bolt action battle rifle of all time. Looking forward to photos of your example. Best wishes. Dave

Yes.

You buy one.

And then another to keep it company.

Keep them warmly housed in a nice safe place.

Then, mysteriously, very soon, you need a bigger safe / gun room.

Funny how that works.

Hi Luis,

Thats a superb looking No4 mk2, well done on your buy, how hard is it to get a Firearms licence in Argentina, are semi autos allowed?

Thank you all for your words! Brian B , Vincent , 25-5 , HOOKED ON HISTORY
This forum has helped me a lot in learning about many weapons, especially Lee Enfields.

Cinders, you have a great colletions! Amazing!

MC , my future n°4 is PF212### 06/50

mrclark303 , By the '90s, you could buy weapons in Regimetals, was received by mail, checkin on goverment agency and were owned a MG34 if that was your wish. So now, you can not do , and the registration process can take many months. So ,maybe I can not get in my hands quickly this No. 4 , and the current owner can not give to me that is not registered in my name. I'll have to be very patient..

Luis, nice gun.

As others have warned, Enfielditis is a condition affecting anyone interested in history and weaponry. With versions made in Britain, Canada, Australia, India, and America, in numerous configurations: rifles and carbines, as well grenade launchers, snipers, and unique models like the DeLisle, you have begun owning one of the most colorful historic symbols of liberty, valour, and courage of the twentieth century.

Enjoy your first, then set your sights on the future of your collection.

Well Luis, stick with it, it can be a very expensive, but also very rewarding hobby. We in the UK have very draconian firearms regulations too, better than some ..... but a lot worse than others!

As the other guys have said, once the "condition" takes hold, you will find the pull of the SMLE, No5 etc irresistible, its quite possible to build a fine collection just based on No4 variants and accessories.


Tell me, are you allowed deactivated weapons in Argentina as stand ins for prohibited Automatic firearms, (Stens, Brens etc), to to complete your British Airborne collection?

if firearms licensing is such a pain, how hard is it to buy ammunition?
