Description
11/4/26 - For sale is a British No4 Mk1 Lee Enfield made by ROF Maltby in 1943, chambered in .303 British. The rifle is in 60% condition and has lost the majority of its original finish, with the metal turning a dark grey mixed with patina. There are freckles of surface corrosion on the edges and some visible at the woodline, and the buttplate has some heavy rust. The wood furniture has been sanded lightly sometime in the past, likely during a rework. There is a "944" marked on the left side of the buttstock and a chip where the stock meets the top of the buttplate. The bore is a 6/10; the lands are bright but the grooves are dark with some corrosion. The receiver and bolt match, the forestock is mismatched, and the magazine is unnumbered. Import mark on the barrel. The rifle comes with a British web sling marked "J. & A.H. 1944".
