EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a historic Lee Enfield Mk I. 303 bolt action sniper rifle, manufactured in 1916 during the pivotal period of World War One (1914-1918). The rifle, circa 1916, is an exceptional example of military innovation and adaptation during the conflict. Privately converted from its original design, this Lee Enfield Mk I. 303 was transformed into a parapet rifle, making it an essential tool for long-range precision shooting from fortified positions. The rifle's barrel, a Fulton target grade barrel, was meticulously fitted to enhance its accuracy and performance. The Lee Enfield Mk I. 303 was a trusted and versatile weapon during the war, with its reliable bolt-action mechanism and 303 British caliber cartridge. However, its potential as a sniper rifle was not fully realized until it was converted into a parapet rifle like the one depicted in this photograph. The Lee Enfield Mk I. 303 sniper rifle, with its distinctive features and historical significance, is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of soldiers and military engineers during wartime. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the weapons and tactics used during the First Great War (WW1/WWI).
