if you have to force anything youre doing something wrong i also have a mk3 love everything about it whats the avrage distance on a 180gr round like the ones he is using
You should learn to fire and reload it without taking it off your shoulder so you can do what Brit soldiers were trained to do: 10 rounds in 8 seconds!
I hear you about the soft point getting snagged in the breech i just ram the son of a gun into battery. also, if you check the feed lips on the magazine you might find that ones a little more bent than the other we have problems with the cartridges pointing up on an sharp angle then when you go to throw one into the chamberit flicks up and too the left and gets the point snagged.
@metisman100 It's the rim of the top round getting caught behind the last one. Set them in just forward of the previous round and you won't have problems.
You should try a Mad Minute with that sometime. It's an old British Army drill; 300 yards, 12" bull, standing to prone, as many rounds as you can fire in 1 minute. Only hits count. The record was set in 1913 by one Sgt.-Instructor Snoxall; he scored 38 hits. You'll need a bunch of chargers for it though.
im thinking of creating a WWII rifle collection, right now i have a Mosin Nagant M91/30, and an Arisaka Type 99, which is sporterized, which pisses me off! but i'm eventually going to add the Enfield, a Mauser '98, and an M1 Garand. i'm only 15, so creating a collection made up of these rifles is going to take a while lol. i was wondering, what type of Enfield is that? and do you have a Mauser '98?
Mr Hickok, just to confirm, Rifles and "Guns" are two completely different things. Rifles have whats known as "Rifled barrels" where as guns have smooth barrels. Still, I agree with you, very nice Rifle. Just lettin' you know.
@TheCGIMaster , Really? That's news to me. I have lots of guns and I see lots of guns every week; very few of them have smooth barrels. Just the shotguns.
@TheCGIMaster What are you talking about? Guns haven't been smooth bore for like 350 years, unless it was a shotgun, or a derringer or something. You can't just tell hickok45 what a difference between anything is, if it has anything to do with a firearm. You just can't do that. Hickok is way more experienced then you will be in your entire life.
Well then, I apologise, I was just saying that if you were to look down the barrel of a rifle, you will see it has a spiral pattern, where as if you look down a gun barrel, you will see the barrel doesn't have the spiral pattern. So yeah I am sorry, and I apologise Hickok for being so picky.
@TheCGIMaster Wait no, your not getting it. Guns are just a generalization of firearms. It just like saying "firearms". Firearms and guns are the same thing. Just a general word. It's like saying "fruit" and a banana. It's silly when you say "you can't call a banana a fruit, a banana has a yellow pill and a fruit doesn't". Do a little more research before you go telling people what's what. That's probably how you got that idea in your head in the first place.
That's great Hickok! As an Aussie I love my Lithgow No1Mk3 and the .303 caliber.
Funny thing, because I grew up with the rimmed .303 cartridge I was used to stacking rounds in front of each other and when I first encountered unrimmed .308 and 30-06 cartridges I thought they were weird looking didn't like them. I have a great respect for them now of course, but I still love the old .303 a whole lot more. :)
@kenny01622 Rubbish, Right? All guns, Apart from air rifles and shotguns are banned in the UK , I think you can still trade deactivated antique firearms though
That gun must just be out the packing... very few marks. doesnt even look like a charger has been used in it. nice find. Mines got alot of 'wear' marks. musta seen alot of action. Also noticed with ur bolt. When you shoot the bolt tilts up a fraction, must be from the spring in the bolt? ..Thier beautiful rifles, love those Singer sights! 1300m sightage heh.
hey hickok45 im 17 years old. me and my dad shoot a lee enfield No.1 MK3. in one part of you video were the ammo would'nt load the problem was the rim of the last loaded bullit got cought behind the second. so it was sitting behind the second bullit in the magazine. so it was not the ammo. but may i suggest hpbt hollow points. less effected buy wind and more accurate. love the videos man.
Good shooting man. I have a No.1 MK3, but in the market for a MK4. I see them around but they are always so beat up I never end up buying one. Any idea where I could buy a new stock for the No.1 MK4 if I decide to buy one ? Thanks.
In service, the wood was not varnished, just wiped over with oil. (Not sure what oil it was, it just came in a can) We did varnish some for 'ceremonial' duties.
I was just wondering what my first instructor would do every time he heard you call it a 'gun'. He used to shout things like 'it is a rifle!'
Oh c'mon, Hickok....the Mercedes of bolt guns? Really?
This thing's ultimate target was Mercedes cars. Preferably with an idiot in the back with a ridiculously small moustache. What you have in your hands there is the Aston Martin of bolt guns. Hehe!!
hey hickok45 where do you get your 303. ammo? i bought an enfield mk1 No.4 last weekend and the only ammo i found was remington ammo but its 28 bucks for 20 rounds thats bullshit man, ima try the gunshow this weekend to find some surplus ammo or somethin
Shoulda taken out that last plate with the revolver Hickok, Another great vid, The enfield action is one of the best ever produced for the front line soldier.
Speaking from a purely subjective angel, rim-lock is a bigger problem with the enfield magazines than many other military pattern guns. Maybe it's the increased spring tension from the larger capacity mag or the design of the feedlips but it seems to be very enfield specific. All rimmed cartridges are subject to it of course.
Of course it's not too much of an issue if you load it with the 5 round stripper clips. It's easy to take the time to load the clips carefully to ensure the correct order.
The Brits used to train rapid firing this rifle by operating the bolt with their thumb/index fingers and operating the trigger with their little (aka pinky) fingers.
so many people have these because after world war 2 the british and australian goverments had to shift millions of these rifles so they were dirt cheap. and thats why many people have an enfield rifle (:
@TheJosephagus heh, dirt cheap? i seen one at a local gun shot that was in pretty bad condition, and they wanted 1300 for it, bunch of crap, i want one so bad but cant find any worth buying, mostly because of the condition
@Beamos12 yeah i suppose because thats america and u guys didnt use the enfields, m1 garands might be alot cheaper over there and stuff. but age shouldnt really matter with enfields if there looked after half decently, we got a 70 year old mark...something i dont even know but i let it off the other day and it shoots very accurately. look up some aussie or british gunshops and see. back in the 50's-70's you could pick em up for a couple of hundred over here no problem
When I was young lots of guys would buy those old Enfields from surplus centers or via mail order from the ads on the back of guns magazines. I haven't seen anyone shoot an Enfield since I was a teen. But watching Hickok shoot that 303 and cycle that flawless old bolt action and hearing that "DING" with each hit makes me want to shoot one. I can't explain it but it Looks like fun!
yet another great, informative video! i really should pick one of these up in the new year...i know of a jungle carbine at a pawn shop not far from here. brilliant guns, love the enfield. one of the smoothest bolt actions ever designed.
my grandad used that rifle when he served in the black watch regiment. i feel sorry for whoever stepped in his sights. powerful gun. the taliban are using them by the way. when i was in sangin i found a few of these by some bodies.
Fairly common gun in Australia (well, as common as a gun can be all things considered) in fact it's the only firearm I've ever handled. Even so aparentlym
Common problem with the rimmed case when loading the Enfield mag. The forward edge of the rim on the top cartridge ends up behind the rim of the lower cartridge preventing it from chambering. Not sure if the 5 round stripper would prevent it from occuring. If you check your video on the second reload you will see the top cartridge is snagged on the lower one. Hope this helps. Always looking forward to a new video.
Hickok45 charges down the hill! That was great! I am shocked that he did not draw the revolver at his hip. Then again, shooting that would have left him and John defenseless agains the zombies.
I have two of the 7.62 NATO versions. The Model 2A built in India. I'd rather shoot them than my M1A/M-25 scoped rifle. The Enfields just feel so good, and the action is the fastest ever made, IMHO, and many others opinions also. The 2A's I have have 12 rd mags but don't have the peep sights. I have fired a 213 score on the Appleseed AQT, so it is fast enough to run with the auto's if the shooter can do his part.
hey Hickok it would be nice to see a mad minute with that thing sometime i would do one but alias i no longer have mine do to things i could not control and no camera needed a stock for it though when i got it i had a nylon bolt on one. he gave me the grenade launcher that is the only part i have left to it and 2 mags. ya it's ez to get a rim lock loading them like that and not knowing about it. mine was a no.3 mk. 2 if i remember right made in 1943. it had U.S. property on it to?
If it was referbished it would say on the left side of the Action block FTR** Factory Thourogh Repair then the year mine is a No.1 Mk3, was made in 1918 and was redone in 1953 meaning it probably went through WWII, they are a gorgous gun and i intended to get a few more like the No.4 and maybe the No.5
I love the Enfield. Just about everybody has or had one up here, fun gun. I think the Enfiled is the best Bolt Action Battle Rifle ever, besting the Mauser and Springfield. Too bad surplus ammo is just about dried up. Nice job Hickock45.
Hi Hickok, just wondering if you have a Kar98k and if you could do a video on it. If the Enfield is the Mercedes of bolt action then what would you consider the Kar98?
remember with the rimmed ammunition you have to load each rounds rim in front of the other, just like the mosin nagant. those were just misfeeds from the ammos rim hanging up on the rim underneath it.
Beautiful Enfield always love watching your videos helped me pick out my first handgun purchase and always helpful tips on what to buy. Keep up the good work!
Being a woodworker by trade and a firearms enthusiast I always love to see high quality firearms that have lasted for decades, even longer on occasion. The wood has developed a beautiful patina and IMO whatever dents, scratches, etc just add to the personality. That would make a fine addition to any firearms collection, especially mine...
Great firearm I have a spike bayonet of my fathers that made the beaches of Normandy. These are still being reissued to the Canadian Rangers in the North..
Absolutely beautiful this rifle. One of the best weapons ever made.

Fairly common gun in Australia (well, as common as a gun can be all things considered) in fact it's the only firearm I've ever handled. Even so aparentlym

If you ever load stripper-clips for it you want to stack the rims over each other so the rim sits. down,up,down,up,down. That way they won't hang up.

Hey hickok can you try the FN Five Seven

Common problem with the rimmed case when loading the Enfield mag. The forward edge of the rim on the top cartridge ends up behind the rim of the lower cartridge preventing it from chambering. Not sure if the 5 round stripper would prevent it from occuring. If you check your video on the second reload you will see the top cartridge is snagged on the lower one. Hope this helps. Always looking forward to a new video.

Hickok45 charges down the hill! That was great! I am shocked that he did not draw the revolver at his hip. Then again, shooting that would have left him and John defenseless agains the zombies.

I have two of the 7.62 NATO versions. The Model 2A built in India. I'd rather shoot them than my M1A/M-25 scoped rifle. The Enfields just feel so good, and the action is the fastest ever made, IMHO, and many others opinions also. The 2A's I have have 12 rd mags but don't have the peep sights. I have fired a 213 score on the Appleseed AQT, so it is fast enough to run with the auto's if the shooter can do his part.

That is a beautiful gun but the stock looks refinished this is just my opinion but i don't like it its to shiny and has no character

hey Hickok it would be nice to see a mad minute with that thing sometime i would do one but alias i no longer have mine do to things i could not control and no camera needed a stock for it though when i got it i had a nylon bolt on one. he gave me the grenade launcher that is the only part i have left to it and 2 mags. ya it's ez to get a rim lock loading them like that and not knowing about it. mine was a no.3 mk. 2 if i remember right made in 1943. it had U.S. property on it to?

If it was referbished it would say on the left side of the Action block FTR** Factory Thourogh Repair then the year mine is a No.1 Mk3, was made in 1918 and was redone in 1953 meaning it probably went through WWII, they are a gorgous gun and i intended to get a few more like the No.4 and maybe the No.5

I love the Enfield. Just about everybody has or had one up here, fun gun. I think the Enfiled is the best Bolt Action Battle Rifle ever, besting the Mauser and Springfield. Too bad surplus ammo is just about dried up. Nice job Hickock45.

Hi Hickok, just wondering if you have a Kar98k and if you could do a video on it. If the Enfield is the Mercedes of bolt action then what would you consider the Kar98?

Hickok, it would be great to see you give a review on any of the variants of the .303 Ross rifle; that is, if you can borrow or get your hands on one.
Damn accurate rifle, but problematic if fired quickly.
Anyways, thanks for everything from the neighbour to the north.

The Lee Enfield and The M1 Grand have somthing in common:
They both can say in gun talk " Hottice Tottice Another Dead Nazi"
and the the Lee Enfiled and The M1 Grand did leave a lot of dead Nazi's on the ground.
Good Shooting Mr. Hickok!
P.S " Cheeper Then Dirty is the best place to buy Ammo you will always find good deals. Just to let you know.

remember with the rimmed ammunition you have to load each rounds rim in front of the other, just like the mosin nagant. those were just misfeeds from the ammos rim hanging up on the rim underneath it.

Being a woodworker by trade and a firearms enthusiast I always love to see high quality firearms that have lasted for decades, even longer on occasion. The wood has developed a beautiful patina and IMO whatever dents, scratches, etc just add to the personality. That would make a fine addition to any firearms collection, especially mine...
