Information on a Lee Enfield

A good 1st Enfield, quite a 'catch' with only 3200 manufactured that year.

Import mark shows it was bought into the USA pre 1968

Does the number on the bolt match the action and other numbers ?

No 1 Mk III. In my last pic I see the VIII is that the marking.

It is Marked as :

SMLE MKIII
Which is a :

Short
Magazine
Lee
Enfield
MkIII (Mk3)

It was also known as the No1 rifle MkIII.

The No1 MkIII* (note the star) ws also manufactured, it was similar to the MkIII but was simplified to aid manufacture.
