Nick, I hadn't menbtioned the point Lee Enfield made about the positioning of the front pad (the gap between its front face & rear of the receiver ring) as there was a relaxation in fitting standards that permitted a small gap. However, in practice I've never seen it & I can't recall off hand hearing of anyone else who has either, which does make one rather suspicious. Further pics would no doubt clarify the issue beyond reasonable doubt. The top edge of the rear pad also looks to be sitting a little high. If you need a good shooting Lee Enfield & you know this rifle is a good shooter then there's no reason not to buy it, but if it were me I'd base what I was prepared to pay for it on the value of the sum total of its major parts only.

But it's entirely up to you....

Best.
