Lee Enfield question

[u/False-Fix8125]

New to milsurp. Need help with:

1. Identifying this rifle. I thought this is Lee Enfield No4 Mk2 but stamps on the receiver and bolt seem to be different

2. Zeroing front sight. I saw YouTube videos people loosening the front screw to move the front sight but mine seems to have none.

3. Is my rifle missing anything in the rear sight ? How do you set the elevation ?

4. Is there anything this rifle seems to be missing ?

So what you've got there is a BSA Lee Enfield No. 4 Mk. 1

Some of the later rifles were manufactured with the screw that you're referring to, but not all of them were equipped with it. To zero your windage you have to drift the sight left or right in the dovetail. There was a tool issued to armorors to do this, but they're very hard to come by now. Most people just use a brass punch and hammer.

Your rifle has the wartime expedient two position rear sight. It's set to 300 and 600 yards. The only way to fine adjust the elevation with this rear sight is to swap out different heights of front sight.

From what I can see everything looks to be in order, but it's hard to say for sure without having it in hand. You could always get a bayonet and a breech cover if you want the rest of the accessories, and the cleaning kit of it's not already in the stock.
