Default Enfield #4 MK-1 Rebirth (project)

Well, I go to Enck's Gun Barn (Lebanon County, good shop) and run into one of our members there, Derghost. We get to rootin' around in the back and come across a couple of Enfields he just got in and a butt ton of Mosins.

Didn't buy anything that night, but I start getting a yearning....and not having a .303....well I couldn't resist this calling and a couple of weeks later found myself back at Encks and for a whole $100 walked out with an Enfield #4 Mk 1.

I hope to make this a project and document as it progresses until complete. I hope my camera is up to it and all the pictures come out OK.



Disassembled....nasty...terrible finish...rust...



Different angle.

This rifle had the best wood..the most visible rifling and the bolt matched the reciever.
