You don't see many in any condition...

[Gloworm]

Sad, but at least it survives…

I take it you rescued it for posterity?

[pbsmg]

Yes mate. All safe and sound.

[Gloworm]

Good drills that man 👍

Good save,I would love to have her in the collection, an exceptionally rare find.

Not the original handguards I'm guessing?

Three slot I think?

It seems it's up for sale again John, now's your chance. Deep pockets needed though!

Did you find it already in the US?

Here's mine. It did time at Radway Green until it cracked the Body and then it was returned to Enfield.


Yours has been fitted with L1A1 handguards and also the X8E5 Cocking Handle. Nice to see such an early serial numbered rifle.

Nice Kev!

Lovely rifle, these early examples are rather rare finds.
