Hi Von Gruff,

I'm not sure there is much info to share. However it appears to be a lovely No1 pattern in .303" caliber. The magazine is not original and looks like a replacement military pattern Lee-Enfield.

Cheerio,

Roy

Definitely made between 1904 and 1914, but very likely between 1908 and 1914.

Seems to be missing the bolt cover but a nice-looking rifle.

Nice piece of kit!
If it hasn't been refinished, then it certainly has been wonderfully kept!
