@hoi hoihoi I'm sorry that your father was issued a "bunk" rifle, but the LE 4 fires one of the most accurate and flat flying cartridges ever made, the British .303. Maybe his barrel was bent, or maybe he was not a good shot. It's hard to believe the Dutch Army allowed rifles in the barracks at that time, generally most Armies of the western world required that you turn in your rifle to the armory for inspection and maintenance when exercises and training were over. Maybe the rifle your father was issued was a reflection on the Dutch Army not knowing it's ass from a hole in the ground and bought a bunch of discarded weapons for cheap. Watch this video if you doubt its accuracy, the one they fire in this video is even missing some rifling in the barrel: th-cam.com/video/cRpGtpKXYQU/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for posting this! I just took possession of one of these - it was my great-grandfather's rifle when he served with the Canadians in the Boer War. I don't think it's been fired in >100 years.
They show up once in a blue moon on GnBroker. I suspect most in the US migrated across the border from Canada, or were purposely imported from Australia and South Africa by collectors.
@@BikeIsLife4EverGG oh you're 1 of those people. How about I say I just had some deer jerky. Oh my god deer is delicious if it's cooked right. Edit - also wild turkey is also really good if it's cooked right.
@@cesar7429 As the war dragged on and their original supplies from Germany dwindled or were captured, the Boers depended more and more on captured British arms.
You are correct. This rifle was made before they had charger clips. There is no stripper clip guide on the rifle. You can only load individual rounds in the rifle.
Awesome video. I just bought one of these, now only missing the No.4 Mk1 T to finish my collection. You should try, not necessarily master, but try the British style of Forefinger & thumb on bolt, while using your middle finger to fire. It is a weird thing to get used to, but cycling is faster & kinda fun
Man, i am happy and surprise to see this rare rifle. This is first bolt action rifle of British which is used in ww1. The rifle have good accuracy and less recoil, but it is very rare to be find nowadays. Thank you for bringing this rifle in your videos. Love your videos👌 always enjoy your content and keep growing.😊
British version of an 1896-99 Krag rifle but with a bigger magazine. Very good looking rifle. Might have to find me one. Liked how the weather changed in the space of 10 rds, global warming? Also, a nice video but steel would be a nice touch. It don’t mean a thang if it ain’t got no clang.
@@GunsOfTheWorld ah ok thank you so much for the reply I appreciate the content you give us it makes me want more for my own collection I just recently acquired a very nice condition vetterli vitali in the original 10.4 italian I'm getting some ammo made so I can shoot it
@@GunsOfTheWorld it was hard to find one been looking for literally 2 years now all I've found are the 6.5 carcano conversions which are dangerous to shoot and are usually in very poor condition I was bumbling along at a gun show and looked at one of the corner tables and low and behold this older gentleman had one sitting on his table for 500$ and he also had a type 18 murata for 850$ but I was more interested in the vetterli but it was cool to see some unique guns I see so many mausers and mosins it's cool to see some unusual stuff
One of the rarest service rifles on the earth… Every nutty gun lover prefers to talk about how SMLEs were legendary and excellent rifles persistently, but only few of those have interest in original Lee Enfields
This young man does the best videos. No annoying music or incessant yammering. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the kind waord man!
The simplicity and accuracy of this rifle make it one of my favorites.

You're welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed!
Wooo es un rifle
A Mk1 Lee-Enfield. Magnificent.
A true oldie but goldie! Such a nice piece of weapon history right here!
G- Man Thank you sir!

Wow that’s crazy mate, is it in good condition?
If you do ever shoot it, it would be a goodnidea to oil the bore first. Thats a awesome heirloom!
Lee Enfield a legendary British rifle used by many countries during world wars 1 and 2
Also called a Magazine Lee-Enfield right? I know this as the MLE as used in the Second Boer War
Yes you are correct!
They were called lee metfords. I believe that there commercial version was known as the lee speed or something of the other.
Anthony Jones
Lee Metford and Magazine Lee Enfields were both used. And yeah, Lee Speed was the civilian version.
they were also used in ww1 and by the nz home guard in ww2
Where did you find it? These Long Lees are not common in the USA.
Very possibly an auction......
@@prolly537 UK may be?
@Green Farm dont know man....i once saw some really overpriced vintage stuff in the canton's, Texas.....
Rock Island Auctions occasionally has these.
They show up once in a blue moon on GnBroker. I suspect most in the US migrated across the border from Canada, or were purposely imported from Australia and South Africa by collectors.
Awesome! That's an old one! It looks great!
Thank you!
This is thr first time i've seen MLE, most Lee Enfield vids out there are mostly SMLE or No.4 Mk1
When others are hearing "yanny" or "Laurel" but you hear "Restore the Empire"
In this case you hear "RULE. THREE. OH. THREE!"
This is my fav rifle.
I need this for my Enfield collection.
sick dude! the closest i can get is a Gewehr 98 with a custom 33.1 inch barrel
Had a deactivated one 1902 model with volley sites. Was sent to Australia and used in Gallipoli
That's so neat! Don't think I've ever seen one that long before. So cool. Thank you
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed!
We can easily call this the long enfield
FOR AQUILA RAHH🗣🗣🔥🔥
The m99 was a Lee Metford btw
Is what Doctor Watson carried to protect Sherlock Holmes on the Baskerville Moor after sunset.
Amazing ! 👏🎯💀
Thank you!
Ah, the oft-overlooked OG Lee
Ahhhh so relaxing.
nice sound & nice gun!
Thank you!
Where are the white mothers
I don't see any Karen's complaining and this is actually making me scared
@Shotgunmad xl can't tell if you're being satire or not lol
Shotgunmad xl Why can’t you take a joke?
@Shotgunmad xl I'm actually black but ok
@Shotgunmad xl and also I use white because I ain't never seen a black mom named Karen who havent had a kid who has survived until age 1
@Shotgunmad xl Nobody:
You: Hey, i'm a Nazi. Give me attention.
my grandfather struggled with that thing
I respect Lee-s since I`ve heard from arctic native, on TV, that they use those because they are the ones that work, there.
Are you shooting full power .303 out of that?
Armas Livres No Brasil Agora Sim Vou Adiantar A minha 9mm, .40
Beautiful
This is a remarkably quiet gun.
Long looooong boi. You can shoot the enemy point blank from your back porch with that.
M&D marked - It was Canadian issued!
the most underrated weapon of the second world war
It wasn't really used in WWII.

Does it take Glock mags
Why did Spain not but these guns of the war 1898.
You must have a good job to be able to buy all of these firearms...
I think he rents them.
Is that stock the correct length to the end of the barrel?
Yes.
@@GunsOfTheWorld Oh ok thanks. I figured out that what I have is a 1896 Lee Speed Sporter
🤤
Were can I purchase one
Lee Metford?
British soldiers nicknamed it Emily, am I right?
MLE..."Emily"...never heard that before, but I can see it.
This thing is looks like if an Enfield had a baby with a Kraig Jörgensen.
A strange man This was the _Original_ Enfield.
Kayraaa2 let me be more specific, if a mark 4 had a baby with a kraig
This gun is looooooong
Just like the Springfield scope
Kennedy the Stopper
That was the norm for pre WW1 rifles lol.
How to buy it ?

Good tool for harassing your german neighboor.

Just hope the German neighbour does not reply back with an mg42 😂😂
Ppsh is good too
actually the dutch neighbor considering the boer war
Always love a SMLE. Never had the priviledge of seeing a mk 1 in action. Beauty.
Because its kinda rare
@@gmalabdalhlem3814 Well yeah, I know.
God, I gotta add one of these to my collection some day
Wow, that gun is a unicorn. Amazing how it's finish is still so pristine. Great video.
The Boer War veteran. A superb rifle but not quite a match for the Mauser.
Perhaps not, but I have seen a Lee Enfield Mk. 1 with a Boer name carved into the stock, so perhaps a few of them held a different opinion of it
@@cesar7429 As the war dragged on and their original supplies from Germany dwindled or were captured, the Boers depended more and more on captured British arms.
I’ve got one from the second boer war I live in South Africa as well unfortunately mine is out of commission the old bugger
Interesting rifle. Haven't seen much about it before. Did they not have loading clips for loading these rifles?
You are correct. This rifle was made before they had charger clips. There is no stripper clip guide on the rifle. You can only load individual rounds in the rifle.
@@GunsOfTheWorld Thanks :)
@@GunsOfTheWorld Ironically, the Royal Navy converted many of their Long Lees with a charger bridge, called CLLEs. (Charger-Loading Lee Enfield.)

The lee Medford isn’t a copy of the krag
It would be nice to see also the MLM(Magazine Lee-Metford).
I want one of these really bad but don't they fire a different ammo type than the smle?
The earlier Lee-Metfords fire black powder rounds but the Lee Enfield Mk I fires standard smokeless .303 British rounds.

It's a cock-on-closing design, like all Lee-Enfields. You learn to SLAM that bolt home....
Glad sniper elite 3 introduced me to this
What's the purpose of that little metal strip that sticks out?
Bayonet slides onto it and anchors there.
