As the title says i inherited a lee enfield from my grnadpa but the magazine got misplaced so i am looking for replacements. let me know if you have any you are willing to sell and we can set up a exchange -Connor, from central alberta
 
Check Del Selin in Vernon, know what gun you have as you never mentioned what model. Del has a decent number for NO4's. 250-545-7175
 
I just ordered one from Marstar this afternoon for my No 4 MkI. I used to have the aftermarket ones - I don't want to mention the mfr here, but they are squared-off and remind me of old WWII BAR mags. They don't work well, and can only hold 9, if that makes a difference. I've found an original, good-quality mag works best. They're pricey, but everywhere I've looked online, the prices are up.

And damn you Marstar for selling these mags. I perused the rest of your site and it looks like it's going to cost me a ton of $$$ now for other stuff I want, lol.

Make sure you get the proper one for your rifle. Mag for a no4 won't work soo well in a no3. And as you actually posted a WTB ad you should post it in the EE. You might get better luck there as well.
 
"...magazine got misplaced..." For which model? It matters as they're not interchangeble. The No. 4 Rifle has the rear sight on the receiver. A No. 1's is on the barrel. The No. 4's magazine has just one locking lug on the back of the magazine and will not lock into a No. 1. SOB's are pricey things too.
"...they are squared-off and..." Yep. They're junk and were made from M-14 mags. However, proper .308/7.62 mags used in No.4 conversions(Brits) and No. 1 Mk 2A's(Indians) were also squared.
