After WW!, the British looked to apply the lessons of the war to development of a new infantry rifle. Trials were made on some Mk3 SMLE rifles refitted with rear aperture sights. This was designated the No 1 Mk V and 20,000 of them were made between 1922 and 1924.
This is a very scarce rifle and will make a great addition to a Lee Enfield collection.
