Lee Enfield No.4 with scope rail and cheek piece.
Posted: Mon Nov 10, 2014 8:41 am
I'm putting my Lee Enfield up for sale as now that we have been blessed with a child I don't have time to do the reloading for it any more.
There is currently a single fairly poor photo here but enough to give you the general idea: https://plus.google.com/photos/11000922 ... 7rmuO-wrgE
I will add more when I get chance. Let me know if you want a close up of any bit in particular.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE SCOPE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SALE. The scope rail is included. It's pretty solidly attached and not some cheap screw on affair (I'll add a couple of close shots of this later).
This gun has obviously seen a number of modifications over the years. It's currently decked up to look a little like a No4T complete with cheek piece but with a rather unusual moderator adapter (with thread protector on the end). It appears that it was probably set up as a more conventional target rifle at some stage as it has the little sight holder thing on the under side of the fore end too. The stock is varnished.
This rifle is a really good shooter and even I can get two inch groups on short Siberia with my home loads which I haven't made any significant effort to tune for precision. With all the bits on it this is heavy for a Lee Enfield and is a great rifle for bench or prone shooting. It would not make a good CSR gun. :-)
I have been the custodian of this rifle since 2010 and have put 648 rounds through it.
I'm looking for £450 and will throw in a set of Lee loading dies for that. I also have brass, suitable powder and bullets available if the buyer is interested. Alternatively they'll be listed/available once the rifle is sold.
I'm based in Basingstoke and would much prefer a local sale. I'm at Bisley on the 7th of December in the afternoon, if anyone wants to meet up then assuming it's still available. It's listed in a couple of places but I will update this thread if it is sold elsewhere.
Thanks for looking and please let me know if you have any questions.
