**BOER WAR ERA**British WD 1894 Dated, Long Lee Enfield MK II Rifle By LSA Co (London Small Arms Company), 1910 Converted To Charger Loading With Long Range Volley Sights, Magazine Cut Off, Cleaning Rod & Sling**2024 UK/EU DEACTIVATION**D 1480 - D 1480
The Long Lee-Enfield .303 was introduced into the British Army in the late 1800’s. It replaced the Lee-Metford, which had been the standard issue firearm since 1889. The latter was a magazine-fed repeating rifle, but it fired cartridges using black powder which emitted smoke when fired that gave away the rifleman's position. In 1891, the British first produced cordite a propellant that burned cleanly without emitting smoke. It also generated more heat, however, which wore out the Lee-Metford's rifling system of seven shallow grooves. A new rifling system was developed at the Royal Small Arms Factory, Enfield, consisting of five deep grooves that could withstand the intense heat generated by the cordite. The result was the .303 Long Lee-Enfield rifle. The new rifle saw service in the Boer wars and beyond. This .303 calibre Long Lee MK II is crisply stamped on the right side of the strap 'LSA Co Ld' (London Small Arms Co Ltd) Crown VR' (Victoria Regina) and '1894' date. In 1910 this rifle was converted to charger loading and is correctly stamped on the left side of the strap 'LSA Co 1910 C.C.L.E’. The breech is stamped with number '9262 and has other un-matching numbers. The metal work has WD and ordnance inspection marks. It has stepped blade fore sight, flip up rear peep sight, long range volley sights, ladder rear sight, bayonet bar, sling swivels fitted with original leather sling, magazine cut off and charger loading bridge. The wood work is excellent & all original. The rifle has its original brass butt plate with trap. Deactivated to UK/EU specification in 2024 the rifle’s bolt moves, its trigger moves and the magazine can be removed. The price includes UK delivery and deactivation certificate. D 1480
