Ten rounds in a detachable box and a bolt that cycles fast made the Short Magazine Lee-Enfield a favorite of British and Commonwealth riflemen. This Mk4 is a used example with a scope, in .303 British, with a 23 inch barrel and a wood stock.

The seller calls the condition very good, and says the rifle was cleaned after the photos were taken. It comes as shown but does not include a magazine, so plan to source one before you shoot. Original magazines are matched to the rifle and should be checked for fit.

The SMLE is a rifle to work, not just admire. Check the bore, the headspace, and the condition of the forend wood near the barrel band. Surplus .303 ammunition is still easy to find, and the rifle suits anyone who wants a piece of history that still shoots well.

The rifle is offered as described and as pictured. Delivery goes to the FFL dealer you name, and you finish the background check with that dealer before taking it home. Ask us about fit, wear or what comes with it before you order.
