    That's an awesome deal! I actually felt a little bad paying $375 at the time since excellent condition No.4 rifles were going for about $250-300 at the time, but I have no regrets now. When you take yours to the range, be prepared to have guys offering to buy your rifle from you.

        Nice rifle, I love the Irish contract rifles. I bought a couple from Fed Ord for $79 in almost new condition.

                  The younger guy who gives the thumbs up hadn't fired a *real* rifle before today. He's not going to fall for the "nothing to worry about, this gun is a *****cat!" line ever again..

                    Nice find. I bought mine from Turners in Pasadena still in the wrap in the 90s. It was fun unwrapping the 10 lbs of paper from it. I've only put 20 rds through is since then. Time to shoot it more!

                    Good to see APTS getting some publicity too. Nice range, great folks there.

                      Sweet! I was gonna suggest that the guy shooting the No.4 MKII use the smaller peep sight instead of the large volley sight, but he didn't seem to have trouble hitting the steel plate.

                        There were a couple of comments when I also started hitting it with slugs out of my Mossie 590

                          I love the FAZ Enfields. I have one I unwrapped about 10 years ago. I "snipered" it with a repro cheek peice (from England) and a Cad Teknik scope mount.

                          Also bought another "new" one still in it's mummy wrap. That one I'm saving to pass down to my son. Kinda cool as both still have their matching bayo.

                          One word of advice CLEAN AFTER EVERY SHOOTING ESPECIALLY SHOOTING CORROSIVE. I didn't after one time, F'd up my mirror bore. Still shoots perfect, but the bore isn't as pretty as it used to be.
