1901 .303 LE Carbine. Serial No.3!!!

  • Closed: Sat 21 Nov 2009, 2:16 pm
  • Listing #: 253915220
The seller is required to sight the buyer's firearms licence and required documentation.
Fancy owning the third Lee Enfield carbine made? Well here it is. Lower rifle in the main photo.
Bolt & barrel are serialed in the 5000 range. Good original finish to both wood & metalwork. Reasonable bore. Foresight altered slightly for HV ammo, front sling swivel repaired. Magazine is from a Lee Speed & restricts cut off operation.
Butt is LE. Probably started life with a different style forend. Inletted for a MkIII rear sight.
Identical to a New Zealand Carbine apart from the markings.
Very tidy overall condition and a very cool serial.

Second rifle from the top is an excellent 1901 NZ LEC & will be for sale soon.

Trade considered.

Seller Comment: Just chatting to a knowlegeable collector. We concluded this is possibly a New Zealand Carbine that for some reason didn't get stamped when it arrived here. 10:32 am, Sun 15 Nov
