Enfield LEC 1 carbine. RIC?
Has muzzle "ring" to accommodate metford bayonet I am told.
Also told this is a RIC hand guard is missing and mag cutoff is missing and rear sight has been tac welded down, also the stock has been sporterized and the butt stock medallion is missing. Other than that it is in 70-80 % NRA condition. LOL. Would you consider this a shooter or should I try to restore I am good at this kind of thing. I could cut the sight free and possibly not be able to tell that it was ever done. Is it safe to shoot with modern ammo 303. Gun date 1899. A friend has brought it to me to evaluate for safety and to identify as asked above?
