Hi all, new owner of a No. 4 Mk 1 Enfield here. I'm kind of an amateur history geek and the opportunity to own and shoot an iconic piece of history was just too compelling. I'll probably just lurk on here for a bit, and I promise to use the search function as much as possible, but I'm still probably going to ask some pretty dumb questions. I apologize in advance.

welcome , we never consider the question dumb and you will get responses here , mostly thoughtful and accurate , but bear with us we do tend to veer off topic and have a little fun in our threads , jno matter what the question or topic - be prepared for the added enjoyment of the joviality , but by all means ask away ............

That is quite the kit! Are you a reenactor, or just a very thorough collector? |

Just an Enfield enthusiast in regards to the No4MkI T.
The rifle itself was just the receiver when I found it. It took almost two years of searching for matching furniture and metal parts along with hours of painstakingly hand fitting the reproduction scope assembly.
