Hi there folks, first time poster, long time lurker from the Frozen North!

I recently got my very first Lee Enfield No4 Mk1 and I'm looking for some advice on if I got a decent deal, any cool info anyone might want to share on it, and lastly and advice on restoring it. The wood is pretty dark and I'm not sure if that's the normal colour as I've seen many with much lighter wood, but I thought I would ask the people who know. Thanks for any responses. Just from using this forum I think I've been able to determine that based of the serial number, the rifle is a 1944 BSA Shirley (At least I think so).
