Sorry dude, you could fill a thimble with what I know about Enfields...
They fire .303, right? Wait, some fire .308 but have another name?
The jungle carbines are often counterfeit.
And they made a bajillions of 'em and they were used all over the world at one time or another and all have been re-arsenaled at least 12 times...
The ones with wire wrapped around the hand guards were made to fire grenades...I'm still trying to figure out why a bolt gun with no gas system needs that type reinforcement but I've never been accused of being the sharpest knife in the drawer...
And I'm out...
I would recommend posting this in the Curio and Relic section - betcha you'll get more answers (and certainly better than I can provide).
Oh, and cool snag for your buddy!

don't refinish it to make it look "better" and it might be worth more or not decrease in value
There's a big difference between refinish and restoration. But thanks for the advice
