Very nice indeed. A lot of history in a rifle like that! Do you shoot it occasionally?

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!

Yes, she's a beauty ! This ones not a shooter, too rare. Not many left in unmolested condition from the early Lithgow years. I have others I shoot.
I just want to preserve it for later generations. Hopefully keep it out of bubbas hands. I would hate it to end up with anything happening like that poor No5 in another recent thread.

It came up for sale and I sold 3 other Lee Enfields out of my collection to help fund its purchase.
It was a pretty fair price I thought.
