I picked this up for $200. Seller told me he thought it was a jungle carbine but I disagreed and was about to pass on it when he said to make him an offer.
My guess is that it is an Enfield 4 MK II. The upper wood seems loose and the color is lighter than the bottom wood so I suspect it isn't original. The front barrel/sling strap works loose after ten or so rounds but tightens easily. Other than that and some minor condition issues it seems in pretty good shape. I got decent groups on a pie plate size target at 50 yards using Korean War vintage and S&B 180 gr .303.
So just wondering if I did all right or did I buy a Bubba special?
Can anyone tell me what this plastic tube is that was in the butt stock?
