Lee-Enfield #4 MK1 Longbranch 1950 Production .303 British 25.2″ Very Good condition

We are pleased to offer a solid and honest example of post-war Canadian craftsmanship: a **1950 Long Branch No4 Mk1* Lee-Enfield** in excellent overall condition, featuring all matching serial numbers—a testament to its careful preservation over the decades.

Manufactured at the famed Long Branch Arsenal in 1950, this rifle represents the final evolution of the Lee-Enfield as a front-line service arm, built with the refined craftsmanship of the post-war era. Chambered in .303 British, it retains the smooth action and rugged reliability for which these rifles are legendary.

The rifle is in excellent condition throughout. The metal retains strong original finish with crisp “LONG BRANCH” markings, the stock is solid and attractive with minimal handling marks, and the bore is bright with sharp rifling.

As with any rifle that has lived a full life, this example carries the marks of its history. The top of the receiver features two welded and filled holes, a remnant of a previous scope mounting attempt. This modification has been professionally addressed, stabilizing the area and leaving a clean, functional receiver. It does not affect the rifle’s mechanical integrity or shooting capabilities but is noted for full transparency.

For the collector or shooter, this Long Branch No4 Mk1* offers an accessible entry point into the world of matching-number Enfields. Its honest condition and documented history make it a fantastic candidate for a rifle that can be enjoyed on the range without reservation, while still retaining its core military character and all-matching integrity.
