    LE No.4 Mk.1*

    Hey folks. This is my first posting so I hope it's placed in the correct area. I'm new the the gun community and looking to buy a couple milsurps. One that I have my eye on is a 1950 Long Branch Lee Enfield No.4 Mk.1*. The guy selling it is asking $350. It looks to be in very good condition. The bore looks good and the bolt just needs a good cleaning. Seeing as prices can vary by region, I was wondering if this seems to be a fair price.

    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.

    +1. $350 would be an excellent price for a 1950.

    +2 Buy ! But be aware, it will not be your last. They tend to be rather addictive. No 4 will have you wanting a No1, No5 different makes different configurations etc........
    You have been warned. Welcome aboard.

    Urkie1979: Welcome and add my vote- that would be a great price in Canadaicon today. So great I would suggest looking at it carefully! However, the occasional good buy does come along. If you get it show us some photos.

    That is a very reasonable price for a 1950 LB. The biggest problem with Lee Enfields in Canadaicon is there are so many out there, people don't give them much respect. Cut down, shortened and abused examples abound.
