Enfield is a historic name in firearms, known for its bolt-action rifles like the Lee-Enfield, extensively used by British and Commonwealth forces during the 20th century.
MoreThe Lee-Enfield rifle, produced by the Royal Small Arms Factory in Enfield, England, is one of the most iconic weapons in British military history. Introduced in 1895, the Lee-Enfield served as the standard rifle for the British Army and Commonwealth forces during both World Wars. This bolt-action rifle was renowned for its robustness, reliability, and rapid firing capability, thanks to its 10-round magazine and rear-locking bolt mechanism.
The Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk III model was used during World War I, while the No. 4 model became the primary rifle in World War II. The No. 5 variant, known as the "Jungle Carbine," was designed for operations in challenging environments such as the jungles of Southeast Asia
