Up for auction is a desirable 1942 Long Branch Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk1* rifle, a Canadian-produced example of the famous Lee-Enfield service rifle family. Manufactured by Long Branch during the WWII era, this rifle features early-style aperture sights and retains a bolt matching the rifle, an important attribute for collectors. The rifle displays a very good overall appearance, with a well-preserved wood stock showing honest handling marks and a metal finish that remains in very good condition with wear consistent with service use. The rifle retains its authentic military character, and no visible import marks are present anywhere on the rifle. Included with the rifle is an unnumbered No.9 Mk1 bayonet marked P.O.F. 60, indicating manufacture by Pakistan Ordnance Factories in 1960, along with a canvas sling. The included bayonet is the correct pattern for the Lee-Enfield No.4 rifle family and adds collector interest to this complete military arms package. Mechanical operation is good, making this an excellent opportunity to acquire a well-preserved Long Branch Lee-Enfield with desirable features and accessories.

The Long Branch Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk1* is highly regarded among collectors of Commonwealth military firearms due to its Canadian wartime production history and reputation for quality manufacture. Collectors particularly appreciate examples retaining desirable features such as early aperture sights, matching bolts, original military configuration, and strong overall condition. The combination of a WWII-era Long Branch rifle, included No.9 Mk1 bayonet, and canvas sling creates an appealing package representing the continued service history of the Lee-Enfield platform across the Commonwealth.
