Description

Navy Arms has imported a small group of original World War II dated Enfield #4 Mark 1 rifles in .303 British that were provided to French resistance fighters and commandos and helped liberate Europe from Nazi occupation. These guns were dropped by parachute by the thousands into France by the Allies in large metal pods. These guns were purchased directly from the French Government who had them stored in deep underground caves in Southern France since 1946.
.
Each rifle comes with the original World War II issued sling still on the rifles! (This is how they were stored, having never taken them off). Has the #4 Mk II style stamped rear sight as shown, bores are excellent with little to no wear and no pitting, bright and shiny! Wood is original walnut with original finish and inspection marks/cartouches intact, front handguard has a hairline crack as shown. Bolt is not serial numbered to the gun.

This model is1944 dated  “BU” and “PP” marked, a unique code unseen in this shipment with only 2 examples in the previous one making it an extremely rare variant that we have only this one example of.  There is a storage number with a “PP” Prefix on the receiver, which was put on by the French Government at the end of the war as a unique reference number for each gun.

Photos are of the actual gun in this listing.

The French government had stored these guns without the magazines over 75 years ago deep inside underground caves, and in that time has misplaced them, so each rifle comes with a Navy Arms Parker-Hale reproduction magazine made in the identical style as the originals.

These are truly exceptional examples of World War II Enfield #4 Mk 1 rifles. There is a very limited supply, do not miss out on adding this unique example to your collection.
