    I know pistols are more popular than revolvers but......

    Enfield Number 5 Mark 1

    It’s pretty uncomfortable when shooting it left handed because of the location of the swing swivel. Right handed isn’t too bad, no worse than a 12 gauge single shot.

    Enfield Number 5 Mark 1

    Mini update. Was beating up an 8" steel plate at 100 yards with a friend today. No stellar accuracy but accurate enough for what it was intended for.

    Enfield Number 5 Mark 1

    What sort of accuracy were you getting at 50 and 100? I’ve only shot some PPU through mine to verify function and was getting about a 4” group at 50 yards. I realize there are a lot of variables that come into play and I’ve barely touched on eliminating them, I’m just curious as to what I...

    Enfield Number 5 Mark 1

    I love the internet for stuff like this. That stamp is an Inspector's Mark and has nothing to do with the serial number.

    Enfield Number 5 Mark 1

    So the only markings I saw on the stock was this stamp on the wrist just behind the trigger guard. ETA: The guy I got it from said the rifle was his dad's and his dad had oiled the stock, which would account for the dark area around the crown, the N, and the 22. I've no idea what those mean...

    Enfield Number 5 Mark 1

    I managed to acquire some appropriate ammo to run through it this weekend. I’ll get a decent idea of accuracy tomorrow I hope

  14. Enfield Number 5 Mark 1

    I acquired this Jungle Carbine the other day and it looks like it was never issued. Any Enfield experts care to give me some guidance?
