Canadian LONG BRANCH Enfield No. 4 Mk1* .303 British Rifle TORONTO C&R ARSENAL Made INFANTRY Weapon of ENGLAND & CANADA
Description: Canadian LONG BRANCH Enfield No. 4 Mk1* .303 British Rifle TORONTO C&R ARSENAL Made INFANTRY Weapon of ENGLAND & CANADA Here we present a C&R Post-World War II Era Long Branch Enfield No. 4 Mk1* Rifle, made in 1950 at the Long Branch Arsenal in Toronto, Canada. The British No. 4 rifle was a development of the Short, Magazine Lee-Enfield Rifle. It featured a heavier, flat sided body, a heavier barrel, and an aperture rear sight. The No. 4 was approved for service in November of 1939, but due to the difficulties of setting up production in new factories, it didn’t see large scale production until early 1942. After that point, it became the primary British and Canadian infantry weapon. Production took place at the Royal Ordnance Factories at Fazakerley and Maltby, along with the BSA’s plant at Shirley and at the Long Branch Arsenal in Toronto, Canada. In the late 1940s, production ceased at the BSA-Shirley facility. Somewhere around 1950, the rifle fabrication machinery was sold to the Pakistan Ordnance Factory in Wah, Pakistan. The Pakistan Ordnance Factory (P.O.F.) undertook an extensive “Factory Thorough Repair” (FTR) program, refurbishing a good many No. 4 MK1 rifles. This involved various improvement including the replacement of simplified wartime rear sights with the MK1 sight which had originally been intended for this rifle. The overall condition is very fine. Original finish. Excellent action. The bore is bright with crisp rifling. Markings are sharp. This example sports a fine stock with expected handling. “1950” dated. Import marked barrel.
