Longbranch mag vs standard no4 mk1?

[buckoff]

I have a no4 mk1 longbranch .303 which came without a magazine so I'm wondering before I order one from marstar, is there anyone here with Longbranch experience who can tell me if the mags differ in any way from others? Or will most lee Enfield no4mk1 mags fit and work fine in a longbranch? Could be a stupid question but you never know and it's an expensive mag so better safe then sorry! Marstar rep was unable to answer this question

All should be interchangeable. However, Marstar shows all No. 4 mags sold out.

Yes, English mags will work. Tradeex has them for a good price. I bought two and they are NOS marked "F" on the spline

Marstar rep told me this morning they do have some in stock and near new condition. Thanks for the advice!

When I bought my no.4 mk1 Longbranch it didn't have a mag, I had a random un marked no.4 mag already and it fit no problem. Tis a wee stiff to get it to click in but not enough that I bothered to file the locking tab. It feeds 100% once seated and comes out easy when I unload.

I got 4 different Enfield mags, They all fit my No4 MkI no issues.

Right on sounds good thanks for all your responses!

you may need to do a little fine adjusting of the feed lips to make it feed reliably.

and when I say fine adjusting its just that, don't have at it with your lineman pliers.
