This is a nice example of a late WWII production British Enfield No 4 MK 1(T) sniper rifle. These rifles were the standard British sniper rifle developed in the late 1930s and used until the early 1960s. This rifle is a No. 4 MKI rifle that was selected for accuracy during production and shipped to Holland & Holland for conversion to sniper configuration. Very few of these Savage rifles were converted to sniper configuration in 1942. The gunsmiths at Holland & Holland carefully bedded the rifle barrel for maximum accuracy, modified the rear sight, installed mounting blocks on the left side of the receiver, fitted the rifle with a No. 32 MKI scope, and fitted a cheekpiece on the stock. The No. 4 MKI (T) is generally considered to be the most accurate and rugged sniper rifle issued by any army during WWII. The right side of the receiver ring is marked "ENGLAND" over a "crown/GP" proofmark. The left side of the butt socket is marked "OC5441" over a U.S. ordnance bomb inspection mark. The left side of the receiver is marked with the square "S" of the Savage Arms Company followed by "No 4 MKI/1942" and the matching serial number is marked on the bolt. The rifle is fitted with the correct No 32 scope that is marked on top of the tube "TEL. STG. No 32 MKI/H.B.M.Co. 09.466A/ REGD NO 3342". The mount is unmarked and the rings are number "13" and "14" on the top on bottom of the right side. The rifle has the standard blade front sight and tangent military rear sight. It is fitted with the correct wartime smooth semi-pistol grip stock with full handguard, correct screw on cheekpiece and steel buttplate with compartment containing a pull through bore cleaner. The underside directly behind the trigger guard is marked with the square "S" followed by crown proof and correctly stamped with the Holland & Holland conversion code "S51" directly behind the pistol grip area. The top of the wrist directly behind the receiver is stamped "3342". The rifle is complete with an original leather sling.
