r/LeeEnfield

Hey guys,

I am just wondering what the small lever/mount is on the opposing side of the bolt? I haven’t seen many with it!

Thanks,

Just picked this up. The stock / bolt / receiver match. The finish is very heavily worn and it doesn't seem to be a typical FTR. This is the roughest machining and the lowest standard of fit/finish I've ever seen on a Lee Enfield. Has a typical wartime two groove bore. Overall a neat rifle.

I have finally finished the process of refinishing my No.5 Mk 1 and pictures just don’t do the finish justice. Tried to give a couple angles to showcase the sheen and gorgeous grain. And before they say I hurt the value, I really don’t care. IMO this lil guy is the best Lee Enfield out there, a true joy to shoot and scoot around with in the bush.

New to milsurp. Need help with:

1. Identifying this rifle. I thought this is Lee Enfield No4 Mk2 but stamps on the receiver and bolt seem to be different

2. Zeroing front sight. I saw YouTube videos people loosening the front screw to move the front sight but mine seems to have none.

3. Is my rifle missing anything in the rear sight ? How do you set the elevation ?

4. Is there anything this rifle seems to be missing ?

I bought my first Lee Enfield and wanted to fix this one up as a project.

I think Its an no.1 mk3 but I wanted to be sure before I got any parts for it.
