    Enfield enforcer questions

    I have found an Enforcer on GunBroker here in the US. The seller states that it is the last known enforcer serial number, 767. He states that it's a Charnwood assembled rifle, that he got from Tony Hallams personal collection. From photos I've received it appears to check out, but the action is a mk1/3 Savage. I'm unsure of what the actual value would be and whether or not it's worth the money. Any help would be appreciated!

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    It’s legit. Purchased and Imported via Canadaicon by BDLicon LTD. Left over from a 1998 Bonhams auction of John Hallum’s, (Tony’s son), personal collection along with several other Charnwood Ordnance rifles.

  7. Thank You to Brian Dick For This Useful Post:

    767 certainly wasn't assigned to a Force, so may have little use, but certainly looks genuine from the pictures on Gunstar provided.

    I own Enforcer 158, the Pecar Berlin scope is serial numbered to the rifle. Was this standard practise as the one in this thread does not appear to carry the rifle serial number?

    Sadly, when the rifles were ordered many Forces had their own scopes already so it is a bit of a mish mash I'm afraid. Nice to see one paired up like yours.
    I take it you know where it hailed from?
