In Mint New Un-issued condition, still in the preservative “Mummy Wrap” we have a Lee Enfield No4. Mk2. (F) Service Rifle. The Rifle was made at the Enfield Factory in Fazerkley. They are alleged to be from an Irish Contract that went straight into storage and were never delivered. They were imported into the States back in the 1990’s by Interarms and Century.
Most were mint but issued, but a few were never issued and still in the factory mummy wrapping such as this example. Most of those rifles were unwrapped by their new owners after purchase so finding one still in “Virginal unwrapped Condition” has become something of a chore. We have seen them fetch as high as $2,700 recently so this is a really good value and probably a great investment. This one also has the very desirable long but which is much more shooter to friendly to modern people, who are much taller than the WWII Generstion.
