Description
By the late 1930s, the need for new rifles grew & the ‘Rifle, No. 4 Mk I’ was officially adopted in 1941.
No4 Mk I’s were made by several factories during World War 2. The bulk of these were from the Royal Ordinance Factory (ROF) Maltby, ROF Fazakerley & BSA Shirley, with lesser quantities at Long Branch in Toronto Canada & by the Stevens-Savage company of Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts in the USA under the ‘Lend Lease program’.
This Long Branch No. 4 Mk 1* was manufactured by Small Arms Limited at Long Branch in Canada.
Overall condition is very good with a very good bore with the 2 groove, left hand twist in good rifling visible so would make a good candidate for service rifle comps.
