Shipwreck Posted 14 July , 2023 Share Posted 14 July , 2023 Hi everyone. My first post so be gentle! I belive this part is from a Lee Enfield MK 3. I may be wrong. Can anyone confirm if I'm correct & what MK's could it be from? Found on The Somme last week. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete_C Posted 14 July , 2023 Share Posted 14 July , 2023 (edited) Yes, as found on The Somme, it’s from a Rifle Mark 3, (or Mark 3*) Short Magazine Lee-Enfield - the Nosecap. Cheers and welcome to the Forum. Pete Edited 14 July , 2023 by Pete_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipwreck Posted 14 July , 2023 Author Share Posted 14 July , 2023 That was quick! Cheers Pete. I'm a bit anal when it comes to naming things correctly. And the pictures were a bonus! Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the pictures were a bonus! Thank you. More than happy to help. If you stick around, you’ll quickly discover that there’s no such thing as ‘too anal’ on this forum. For instance, I’ve just spotted that the ‘Protector backsight’ on the Mk III (with bayonet) photo, is inexplicably fitted the wrong way around, which troubles me greatly. All the best, Pete Edited 14 July , 2023 by Pete_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipwreck Posted 14 July , 2023 Author Share Posted 14 July , 2023 That's a relief Pete. Glad I'm not the only one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
