enfield mk I t sniper rifle
my gunsmith has come across an enfield mk I t 303 british sniper rifle it is in original green wooden box with all acc. he tells me it is unfired after some research i found they only sent the more accurate ones to be modified into sniper rifles so i know it was fired during field testing my question is what is this thing worth

kfbrown14.......sniper rifles are usually worth their weight in gold (well, before gold was $1500/o!) so if it is all original and includes its No. 32 Telescope in the kit, hold on to your pocketbook! Would need photos to verify condition but the No. 4 Mk I rifle with the entire kit could go $5k+ even in this down market. They were all battle rifles selected for accuracy and sent of to several different plants for production. Holland and Holland did many of the conversions but some of the rarest were coverted at Long Branch and they are so marked. If it is the real deal it will do nothing but appreciate in value in the future IMHO. Hope this helps[^] 0 -

You are certainly welcome! I look forward to the photos. Good luck! Remember, "chance favors the prepared mind!"[^]0 -
as well as the 'prepared wallet/checkbook'. 0 -
You may know all this, but "complete accessories" would mean the cheekpiece, scope and scope can, scope covers, and a US Springfield '03 leather sling, as well as the carry crate with leather handles.
Mine will shoot 3-4" groups at 200 yards.0
