REDUCED!! A RARE 1945 ENFIELD JUNGLE RIFLE #5 WITH BAYONET, SHIPPING INCLUDED

THIS FIREARM IS AN ORIGINAL ENFIELD NO. 5 MK1 ‘JUNGLE CARBINE’ MK1 AND NOT A REPRODUCTION OR MK 4 CUT-DOWN. THE FIREARM IS AS ISSUED BY THE UK AND CARRIES THE BRITISH MILITARY BROAD ARROW ACCEPTANCE PROOF MARKS. THE FIREARM HAS MATCHING SERIAL NUMBERS ON THE BOLT AND STOCK. MAY HAVE BEEN FACTORY FIRED... IT IS, OF COURSE, IN THE ORIGINAL .303 CALIBER AND IN OVERALL VG++ TO EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE SERIAL NUMBER INDICATES THAT IT WAS MANUFACTURED IN JANUARY 1945 AT THE M47C, WHICH IS THE WAR CODE FOR BSA SHIRLEY IN BIRMINGHAM.

THE ORIGINAL STOVE BLACK FINISH IS 97%, AND THE BORE IS EXCELLENT, BRIGHT, SHINY, AND SHARP. THE WALNUT STOCK IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, BUT THERE IS A SMALL SHRINKAGE CRACK BEHIND THE RECEIVER, WHICH DOES NOT AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE OR INTEGRITY.  OVERALL, IT IS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF A BRITISH CARBINE. IT HAS THE PROPER REAR SIGHT, AS DO ALL ORIGINAL ‘JUNGLE CARBINES.’  ALL ORIGINAL MARKINGS WERE REMOVED AT M47C. THESE FIREARM AND BAYONET COMBINATIONS ARE HIGHLY PRIZED BY COLLECTORS AND SHOOTERS ALIKE AND ARE THE FORERUNNERS OF WHAT IS CONSIDERED TO BE THE MODERN SCOUT RIFLE CONCEPT. THERE ARE SOME EXTREMELY LIGHT DINGS, SCRATCHES AND SMALL SURFACE CRACKS FROM BEING IN STORAGE FOR SOME TIME.

THE BAYONET HAS A MARKED WSC, WHICH IS A WAR CODE FOR WILKINSON SWORD COMPANY, WHICH MEANS IT WAS MADE DURING THE WAR.  ALSO, THE BAYONET IS MARKED BY F5 ROF DATED 1943 WITH AN EARLY SCABBARD, A BROAD ARROW OVER F5 WITH A CIRCLE WITH P (POOLE).

DUE TO A LIMITED PRODUCTION AND HIGH COLLECTOR APPEAL, THESE ARE GETTING DIFFICULT TO COME BY, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION. PLEASE VIEW PHOTOS CLOSELY.

THANK YOU FOR LOOKING! SO THAT YOU KNOW, SHIPPING IS INCLUDED. THE ASKING PRICE IS NOW $1600, REDUCED FROM $1800
