he!!o, everyone
        I am new to the forum and am happy to say I own my dream rifle. I have a No. 4 MK1 that was built in 1944. I do not know where it was manufactured or much history on it as I have not done a lot of research. I have not had the chance to fire yet as it needs some work done. I have however been buying accessories such as a repro canvas carrying case, bayonet, charger clips, and a grenade launcher. I look forward to meeting new people, getting all my questions answered and of course shooting it.

Welcome from Phoenix Arizona and welcome to the forum.
As soon as you can post photos, make sure to get a shot of the left side/slab side of the reciever showing any and all stamps. A shot of the serial number goes a very long way in establishing were the rifle originated from as well.
Again, welcome to the forum...
