Ok, so I am a hunter, not a milsurp collector, so I know nothing about Enfields.

I have what I believe is a 1941 No.4 MK1 that I used one season as my first deer hunting rifle 20+ yrs ago. It has sat in the gun cabinet ever since. Since its been sporterized, I am assuming there is not too much value. I am thinking of putting it in the EE, and do not want to rip anyone off, so I was hoping to get a value on it.

The barrel is shiny, and the rifling looks strong, but I still think its a fugly lookin rifle lol even when my Uncle gave it to me all those years back. Stock looks like it was sanded down quite a bit since I can not see any serial numbers on it. I used some chalk in hope my camera would get a clear focus, but the pics are still not all that good.

Sporter, fairly good one, sussex mark on the barrel.

also what look like canadian inspection marks.

I suspect that it has a 4 lands in the barrel.

Now if it has matching serial numbers bolt and reciever and it headspaces allright I suspect that you will get about $150 for it might seem a touch high but depending how fast you want to sell it. It has a lot of desireable features for a sporter.
 
Receiver and bolt match, mag does not. Maybe the second mag that I cannot find matches, but the one I can find does not. I have no clue about head space, but last time it was shot (20+yrs. ago) it killed a deer. :D
 
Looks like a Parker Hale conversion. My No.1 sporter looks very much like that. The forearm and front sight are identical. The front sight should say Parker hale on it.

A clean sporterized Lee Enfield. I'd strip, stain and refinish the forarm to match the butt stock, it'd look nicer :)

Value range indeed in the $100 to $175 (maybe...), in the top of that range when you get near the hunting season!

"...$100 plus shipping would be fair..." That'd be light.
"...can not see any serial numbers on it..." Never had a S/N on the stock.
