Good evening everyone. I've gotten interested in Lee Enfields in the last couple of months (watched A Bridge Too Far again). I've watched videos, bought Ian Skennertonicon's book, and of course searched the net. As luck would have it, we have 2 for sale locally, a Number 4 Mark I and a Number 5 at a pawn shop. I believe the Number 4 is a Maltby rifle. I've not had the bolt out to look at the bore. I have noticed the bolt rising when I'm squeezing the trigger, which I've read is not a big deal, but still makes me uncomfortable. The carbine's bore looks rough, but I don't get that bolt rising. I'm also looking at a couple of SMLEs online. Eventually I'd like one of each mentioned, I like the thought of having a rifle someone carried into combat. I'm interested in opinions, thoughts, suggestions. Thanks!
