Dated 1944 on the butt socket, with "F.T.R." and "TR" stamps added, this is a fine No. 4 Mk. I (T) sniper rifle. The 4Mk1(T) was Great Britain's go-to military sniper rifle for World War II and the opening of the Cold War. Blade front and folding peep rear sights, the latter with the fixed battle sight properly cut off to accommodate the scope, and a pair of bases mounted to the left side of the receiver. A green paint overcoating has been applied to the front sight, barrel bands, receiver, trigger guard, magazine, and sling swivels. Matching numbers are present on the bolt, receiver, magazine and forearm, with non-matching scope numbers on top of the wrist. A raised cheekpiece has been mounted on the buttstock. The No. 32 Mk. 3 scope is marked with a blue paint "B" and numbered 20737, with leather lens caps, "198" and "199" marked rings and a "H/33394" marked ring base. The No. 8 Mk. I scope case is finished in green paint, and numbered to a different rifle and scope. The No. 15 Mk. I transit chest is painted green with white-stenciled nomenclature markings, black stenciled Interarmco markings, and proper internal spacers and inventory list. Also included with the lot is a copy of the August 2020 issue of Man at Arms magazine, which includes an article discussing the sight configuration on the Enfield Sniper.

Very fine overall with 90% plus of the arsenal blue/black finish on the metal which has been over painted with olive drab camouflage paint. The scope and mount retain 95% of its original blue finish overall with clear sharp markings and optics. The rear buttstock is in very fine condition with a nice dark brown oil type finish with minimal handling marks on the sides. The forestock and top handguards have all been arsenal refurbished/sanded with light marking have a light varnish overall. The metal scope can is also very fine with most of an arsenal refurbished green paint and the storage chest is in fine condition green painted exterior with clear markings, however there is a very noticeable crack starting in the lid. Mechanically excellent.
