    Hey Guys I thought I would add my 1945 Matching (wood it not serialized) Long Branch to the list:

    No 4 MK I* - 1945 - s/n 87L4851
    -LB Sight Mk 3
    -Steel Butt Plate
    -Upper Handgaurd is Grooved
    -Long Branch Split bottom magazine (no serial number)

    The odd thing about mine is I don't see any rework markings on the gun the only real feature I have is the Ishy/Brit screw was installed at one point but has since been removed and filled. It also has the early Englandicon import mark on the barrel from when it went into the states.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    First post for me.
    My first Lee Enfield was/is a 1945 Long Branch No4 Mk1*
    SN 84L2731 with matching bolt and receiver. No SN on the mag, the blueing is different, so replacement?
    Walnut stock, but is an unsporterized "Surrey" so mostly replacement.
    Ribbed top wood replacement.
    Steel butt plate.

    Hope it's not already in the database! Cheers.

    I have a No 4, Mk1 that has the following markings:

    M47
    1943
    AQ0452
    TR

    Above the Chamber it Englandicon and a crown and an S on the right side of the receiver. It has the mounts for a scope on the left side of the receiver.
    Unless it is a fake I assume it was a sniper version, but I am not familiar with No 4's not built at Long Branch or by Savage. Any Idea about this rifle. I am new to the forum and will get some pics up.

    Look up the author Ian Skennertonicon. He wrote many books on Britishicon small arms. He has a ne, revised version of The Lee Enfield. original version has become very expensive and difficult to obtain. Visit the website 303British.com. I'd love to know what you find out about this rifle.
