Video: Surplus Release: Enfield #1 MK3 .303 Caliber Rifles

Speaker 1:
Hey, everybody. Ben on classic firearms here. Today is Thursday, May the 11th. And I told you folks yesterday we would have something really special today and here is. Folks, believe it or not, we have some 303 Caliber British Enfield. This is the number one Mock Three British Enfield, bold action, cock on close, Lee Infield Riffles, mag fed, original 303 caliber. These are virtually non-existent in the country at this time. This very small lot, and we have less than fifty available, this very small lot is the remainder of what was in the Samco liquidation when Samco had their liquidation sale, went out of business. We were fortunate to get these. After these are gone, I am told there will be no more. Now, we're always careful about saying, "There's not gonna be anymore," because something will pop up. But I was there, I remember the number of Enfields that they had, we have gone through them now, this is the very last release so I do not expect anymore. If there are, they won't be in any type of numbers to speak of. More, than that, overall, these are in pretty darn good condition for Enfields. Now, I've been around a long time. Back in the late 80s, early 90s, when these were coming in, we saw a lot of Enfields. I've never seen a beautiful Enfield. They're not beauty queens, inherently, because they did see a lot of service all over the globe. You see these used in movies all the time, representing different places throughout the world, but by Enfield standards, these are really nice. Matt's running the camera. Matt, come on in. Let's show the folks what we've got. I picked that one up as an example. While Matt's scanning, I'll lay this one up here and show you. The two different grades that we have ... Oop. And I just turned all of them over, are the good and the good crack. Matt, come back to the tag here. You see the GC on here for good cracked? Honestly, folks, we laid out about five of these good crack ones on the table. I have not found a discernible crack in any of these five, and we'll scan both sides and let you take a look. What I have seen, and I can't swear to it that it will be like this on all of them, but what I have seen ... Let's come right here, Matt. Is a few stock repairs. That is an arsenal stock repair. That may be what they were referring to as a crack. I don't know. Whoever graded them may have had eyes better than mine, they may have found a minor crack in the stock elsewhere. Expect a minor crack because their calling them a crack stock and we're selling them under that code. But folks, sometimes we can see the cracks, sometimes they're not as obvious. And in this case, they're not terribly obvious. Now, we have the good crack. We also have just the standard G code. Let me see if I can point that out to you. Here we go. Shows the product code dash G. Just means good. Means that whoever graded for the importer did not find any cracks in the stocks in these at all. So, this is the G code Enfield. And, let's tell you before we go to our special surprise, what we're gonna do on these. We have more of the GC cods than anything, so we're gonna call that our primary rifle. The GC codes will be the baseline rifle. These are at 499.99. 499.99 for the GC. Just look it up under Enfield. You will find these listed. 499 on those with a $30 custom auction upgrade for the standard G code showing no cracks. So, really nice Enfield number one mock three's starting at 499.99, less than 50 to be had. We think these will go fast, so take advantage of them. Having shown you those ... Matt, let's come down here to these final two on the end of the table. While you're scanning them, I'll tell the folks about them. These look like standard Enfields in every way, but folks, these are very rare. This is the 22 Trainer variation. These are chambered in 22 Long Rifle. This is what the military used to save money on ammunition, so they had the rifle replicated, or it's an exact number one mock three Enfield made up as the exact rifle. Same mag and everything, but as a single shot 22 long rifle. These are a collector's dream, folks. They are very difficult to find. We only have two. You can look these up under the Enfield name, also on the site. These are called the Enfield Ishapore 22 Trainer. Only two of them. Those are also at 499.99. Folks, we appreciate your business. These are gonna be posted tomorrow at noon. That will be Friday at noon, we're gonna release them. Don't miss your chance. A highly collectible, very historic rifle. We think you're gonna want one. We think they're gonna do well and go very fast. Again, we appreciate your business and thank you for being with us at www.classicfirearms.com.
