Here is my "new in box" Enfield. The guy who sold it to me said he got it from this old man a couple weeks before I bought it who had the original box from when he bought it years ago and never fired it. It is a sporterised No. 4 Mk 1* from Savage stamped U.S. Property and was sporterised by Century Arms Lt'd. It is the most beautiful Enfield sporter I have seen, certainly the best condition I have ever seen any Enfield in as well...nicest wood I've seen on an Enfield and in unfired NIB condition to boot... I haven't seen many Enfields like this around-looks like a brand new rifle to me, definitely looks unfired with it's shiny bore and I don't think it was handled much at all either..
All in all I'm a happy camper...It weighs 8.2 lbs and is my favorite new hunting rifle! Just got to get a leather sling for it now...The last Enfield I hunted with was an old beater No. 1 Mk III* sporter, had great success with it and loved that rifle, but it did have a worn out barrel and I always wanted a "new" Enfield to hunt with..I like the sporters better for hunting than the full-stock SMLES as well...
