Lee Enfield L39A1 British military target/match rifle
308 Win./7.62x51 Bolt Firearms Rifle
The Enfield L39A1 is a British military target/match rifle developed in the late 1960s by the Royal Small Arms Factory (RSAF) Enfield. It was essentially the open-sights counterpart to the L42A1 sniper rifle (which used a telescopic sight), both built on converted Lee-Enfield No. 4 actions rechambered and rebarreled for 7.62×51mm NATO (.308 Winchester compatible). This rifles overall commission isn’t very good shape from the wood to the bore. You will not be disappointed in this precision shooting platform. Ready for your collection or the range.
