    I gave $75 for mine-average condition, and no scope. This rifle looks a little rough, but what a tack driver!

    Look to the Left of the Reciever on the Barrel should be some markings.

    I bought a MKIV .303 with a 4x Weaver scope and sporterised stock in very good condition for $80 at a gun shop last year......it too is a tac driver.

    Need to have more info on the rifle for a relative ball park price range.

    Pack slow, fall stable, pull high, hit dead center.<BR>

    it has a 20inch barrel no flash hider it has a slding vertical iron sight and the only markings i can find on it are some oriental letters ,no, mkIIIu.k. i think top part is faded a little and where the medaliian was on the butt of the atock was filled in because the coin is not there anymore

    Did you or someone cut the barrel off? More than likely it is a
    No.1 MK.III SMLE. You could probaly depending on location get 125.00 to 165.00. Your scope would not be to much, Im guessing it is drilled and tapped and not the Enfield mounts.

    you are right it was drilled and tapped and when i got it the gone was as it is i have looked at other enfeilds and the stock goes allthey way to the almost end of the barrel mine does not but it looks like every thing on it is original it does not look like any one did anything to the barrel it self

    Since you have one post left, let me send you this link on these tack drivers http://www.sightm1911.com/lib/review/Enfieldno4mk1.htm. Leaving them original is good advice.
