The Lee Enfield (SMLE) infantry rifle Part 3
Many versions have been built through many different eras, but the same rugged, reliable, accurate basis of a rifle was still there. Even though the British would eventually go with a large caliber battle rifle, and then a small rifle caliber assault rifle, some would say that none are completely much better than a good 'ol infantry bolt action at the hands of a good rifleman. For all the history, and characteristics the rifle has to offer, I plan on adding one to my collection.
