That my friend..is a very nice rifle..
Here's my 41 Lithgrow.

nice

Both sweet rifles I have one lonely no.1, a 41 BSA?

Well here is my No5 Mk1 Jungle Carbine.

Here's some pictures of my two girls.

A 1918 Enfield #1MKIII. All matching and original, with the added bonus of an Oster Gendarmerie mark, which denotes Austrian use after WW2. As a bonus I have a 1918 Sanderson Pattern 1907 bayonet to go with it.

Well here is another from the stable. I cant claim ownership on this one though, it was actually given to my daughter by a good friend of mine. What you are looking at is a 1918 L.S.A. Sht LE III Enfield that has been converted into a line throwing rifle. It is chambered in .410 . Another interesting feature is that it has New Zealand ownership marks. I ve seen many .410 Enfields and most have been Indian. Gonna go out on a limb and say this one is quite scarce. Here is a pic. [/font]

Thanks ffeng. There is more than just a remnant of the green paint. Here it is out of the wood.

My only true blue British rifle almost no markings, but it has a very nice bore, and it passed the head space check It was one I got in trade when I dumped a few commercial rifles I was not happy with or never shot.

ffeng31 wrote:Nice !! You would be surprised how many Enfields have had that paint cleaned off by owners who didnt know what it was.. That one surely is a keeper.

I almost took it off myself, but fortunately did a little research and realized that it was supposed to be there. That and keeping with our preservationist train of thought here on the forum, I made the right decision, and left it the hell alone. I have a feeling that it was made too late in WW! to have seen the elephant, and that it was put into storage until it was given to the Austrians. That would explain it's remarkable condition. You have some beauties yourself. I really like that line thrower. Cool variation.
BTW my 1918 is quite the shooter. Here is a target pic with handloads.

Lots of nice Brits, wish I knew more about them, one rifle I never really got to know. I've researched the Ishapore 2A and 2A1 alot, never made it to this one Sadly, I've never shot her either

Maltby, is that good or bad?? Here is the opposite side, I also have the spike style bayonet for it.

Ok, I'll try again

Hopefully I can get her out, it is a butter smooth action.
