Lee-Enfield No1 Mk III Cal: .303 Brit SN: 4572
British military blued bolt-action rifle with a 25-1/4" barrel, web sling, and one magazine. Made at Enfield Royal Small Arms Factory in 1924. Import marked. Metal is worn and faded with some pitting. Brass butt plate has a trapdoor with a pull-through (and maybe more) under it. Wood is missing a disc in the butt. There has been a repair under the ejection port and one below the rear sight. There is also the general wear and tear marks of a military rifle. The bore is dark with rifling. The action works well but there is no spring tension on the safety and it can drop the striker to a half-cock position when disengaged. This has a magazine cut-off. Condition is poor. *Modern Firearm*
