Swift and bold. I’ve had a few RGJ (now rifles) snipers attend the Royal Marine course over the years. In my opinion the sniper roll is absolutely suited to the regiment. Probably a missed trick by the Army in modern warfare.

We used to shoot with these rifles (basic version) when I was an ATC cadet. Mostly at Rainham, Essex. It's a nature reserve now, although they still have the target butts in place, with one target frame preserved. We also used to shot with the .22 version at a local TA indoor range.

My Grandmother used to make these guns and others in Maltby, Yorkshire, England as mentioned in the video, at the ROF (Royal Ordnance Factory) during WW2, she always said she`d never worked so hard getting the guns out and never had she earned as much money, they were paid a bonus on piece work, nice one Grandma and I still live in Maltby today. Thanks for the video and thanks for your help in WW2, kind regards from Blighty.

My father was a sniper, first discovered at Sandhurst when his accuracy was so good they didn't believe it was a private who could shoot this well. Privates and officers had different places to shoot. It was 1940. My father taught me to shoot so well that in the 1950s when I was 9 I was winning at the local fetes.

When I joined up in the late 1970s the L.E. No4 was still being issued (1 per platoon) to regiments stationed along the border between N.Ireland and the Irish republic, the only difference was that these weapons had now been converted from .303 to 7.62, I had the opportunity to use the 7.62 at the range on several occaisions and found it a lovely, well balanced but rugged piece of kit and it was obvious to see why the squaddies who used them on a long term basis were so fond of them.

Towards the end of WWII, a British sniper at a distance of 300 yards with standard sights, placed 38 rounds in a 4" circle in a timed 60 seconds. A feat never equaled. My father owned one of these rifles, and I could hit crosshairs at 100 yards time-after-time.

I was too young to join the Cadets before schools dropped that option. RATC was a option out of school hour’s. Learned using my Fathers Lee-Enfield 303 No 4T. He was WW2 veteran. The stock fore-end was removed. The rifle was originally used for Govt contracts Deer culling. Same sights, same box everything so original and complete. Later after years of hunting trips, NZ, Australia and South Africa it was gifted to a friend of his. That friend had never hunted and culled Wallabies on his first hunt. Local Gun club used our property for long range competitions. NZ Tactical Response Units trained on our farm. Bit of a kick for 12 year old me.

The .303 was still in use in Rhodesia in 1979, though by then it had been handed down to farm militia. Some still had British South Africa Company stamps on them, which predated 1923. Some Internal Affairs DSAs (District Security Assistants) still had them into the mid 1970s. I was told of one contact in a Tribal Trust Land north of Mtoko/Mrewa where seven DSAs were ambushed by an unknown number of ZANLA Terrs. Two DSAs had old .303s and five had new German G3 automatic rifles. The Terrs had AKs, of course. At the end of a couple of minutes of intensive automatic fire all those on both sides with automatic rifles had run down their ammo, leaving the two .303s, which could only take single shots, in command of the battlefield by virtue of being the only ones left with a significant numbers of rounds! The Terrs withdrew with no reported casualties on either side.

The Lee Enfield was the go-to rifle for many years for the British Army and served in every theater of war. This video was informative and as mentioned, the sniper rifle version came 'boxed' with scope, cleaning kit and ever other add-on and tool ensuring the British sniper wanted for nothing. As a weapons system this rifle and trained marksman were a formidable threat on the battlefield. A real piece of British engineering and thank you for the upload....

Interesting. I put an answer on Quora about the No4 Mk1 (T) and received a comment from a guy that owned (inherited from his father) a Mannlicher-Carcano model 1891. He was very proud that it hadn't been "sporterized" and could still be used as a hunting rifle with iron sights. Reckoned he, his grandfather, his father and his son have killed a lot of deer: "My grandpappy served in ww2. European and African theater. Bronze star recipient with Valor. He brought home a trophy gun from Europe. A mannlitcher carcano modelo 1891. 6.5. He hunted with that rifle most his life back home. Then my father. Currently me and this year my oldest son passed his hunters safety course, so he will be hunting with it. It's a all original rifle. Has not been sporterized. So yea its still a meter long lol. Anyway hundreds of whitetail deer have fallen to that rifle. For having only iron sights its one of the most accurate rifles I own. Point and shoot and the deer drop. Ammo is harder to find these days. I've only found around ppc. So I buy all I can find when I come across it. I love that old relic. I don't hunt as much with it anymore but I do knock at least one down a year with it anymore. My buddy runs a gunsmith shop out of his place and is constantly trying to get me to have him re chamber it in something easier to find. But I don't want to I love the 6.5x55 round. It shoots straight and has lots of knock down power. Gotta love them old ww2 bolt action rifles."

I cannot attest the following is true but I certainly would love to believe it. This story was told to me by a very good friend who served for many years in HM's forces. His friend (also a senior NCO) was doing a 'stock-take' (or whatever they call it in the army (probably 'stock-take'!) at a base then used by the Territorial Army. Basically he found a long, dusty, old wooden box under a bench in the armory and pulled it out for a look, guess what he found? Yep, absolutely pristine L E No. 4 (T), complete, the entire works as described. As these guys had both shot in competition for the regiment, you can imagine he was quite pleased. Even better, it was not listed, it no longer existed 'on-paper'. He thought about it for, oh, two seconds and decided it would be unfair to burden the system with a .303 'relic' , think of the paperwork? They'd probably have to form a special unit just to re-introduce this exquisite example back into the national arsenal and then dispose of it for reasons of obsolescence. Just wouldn't be right? So this heroic man selflessly assumed the 'burden' unto himself. It was a TA barracks (English version of the National Guard), it wasn't a training day, nobody around, backed his vehicle up and loaded the 'box', gave some 'shite' to the acting Lieutenant about the organisation of the armory (just so they would be glad to see him going), signed some forms and left the barracks, grinning hugely. And that is the end of the story, children, go to sleep now! Pax dudes.

In Australia there were several additional rifles that found use as "Marksmen" rifles, according to my retired sources in the Australian army--in .303 British and 375 Holland and Holland Magnum. The P14, P17 were two of these WW1 variants that had Eddystone American Mauser type actions and these rifles were bought from the military and converted to 25 calibre as sporting rifles, where they had LITHGOW (Sportco) barrels fitted, and were still considered to be extremely accurate. It may be possible to buy one of these 303/25s and have it fitted with a new 303 barrel if one wished to emulate an original Enfield Eddystone P14 or P17, but who would bother unless a collector? Good luck finding either with an original as ordered matched heavy barrel..

Not fired a 4T but have the standard .303. A great weapon. A little heavy and kicked like a mule. I was a very small and skinny 14 yr old when I first fired one and laying on the range each time I fired it it pushed me back a couple of inches. Didn't stop me getting the marksman badge though. Great memories. With luck I will be back on the range next year with the L98a2. Looking forward to it.

That would be US$ I'd say. I paid $AU7500 for my No1 Mk3 HT, they are now selling for around $AU9500. But I will keep it and I use it regularly, excellent target weapon

Shit! My Grandfather had about 5 Lee Enfields. One of I think was a Sniper Rifle. Did they have an earlier Model? I wonder what happened to them. He was a Rifle Shooter. Won the Australian Championships one year. I wonder who got them? or did he sell them when his eyesight went.

Great rifle just imagine if it could be semi-auto magazine-fed like the M1 Garand or M1A....
