It's the end result that counts. These rifles are representatives of a by gone era,that will continue to exist as long as I'm alive.

I'm almost positive that I've accumulated all that I can,within reason,for this set up...

I personally think you rescued a No5 that was destined to be Bubba'ed or worse, and resurected it to a place any Lee Enfield fan would be proud to include in their collection. Well done! Beauty!

Well then. Bring one of those fine T rifles to Arizona and part with it. In exchange for the rifle,I will give you some US currency...

That's a lovely collection, but surely the leather slings are wrong?

Yes, they're not originals. In fact,the No4 T and the No4 Mk2 slings were custom made from a saddle shop here in Phoenix.

Goosic. I don't suppose you could give me the name of the shop that made those slings? They look freakin' awesome! My brother and sister-in-law winter in Phoenix. Those would look sweet on my Enfield rifles! I love hand crafted anything. Pride. Workmanship. Lost arts today. Nylon gun slings? Please...
