Lee Enfield No.1 Mk.V 1924 with new Australian heavy barrel properly fitted. Barrel is as new, anything in the bore is just dust. Original matching barrel included, also excellent rifling but got bent when being unbreached long ago. Might be straightenable with a hydraulic press and a bit of skill - they used to straighten barrels during production after all.
Less than 20 rounds through the H barrel; headspace is great, everything works smoothly. Bubba cut it down before I got it. Forend is decent, but the butt was sanded too far. Reproduction wood is available from Prestigious Gunstocks: $425 for all three pieces. Repro bands are out there too.
Has been in my safe for decades. These are 4-5K rifles in good condition. The Aussie barrels are impossible to get here now.

PAL verified of course. Will be well packed. Full insurance is required, not optional.
Listed as "Lithgow" because there is no "Enfield" option in the drop down menu!
