Misc Can anyone ID this rifle?

Post image

I've been told it might be a Lee Enfield, possibly a No. 4 MK I or a SMLE. But after looking at photos the magazine here isn't located close to the trigger guard or maybe I'm misunderstanding something. It's my dad in this photo, but he passed away several years ago, or I'd have asked him directly. Anyway, I'll appreciate any insight or clues, thanks!

AG42 in 6.5X55

I confirm it’s an AG42. 👌

I have one, and couldn’t believe it when the LPC banned it as well.

I had fantasies about running it for 3gun.

Bud, just stop touting CPC campaign talking points. The CPC is dead, like it or not. Focus on getting on good terms with, checks notes, any other political party that has a chance of getting votes. They might as well have opted for MAID rather than associating themselves with Trump. Maybe we’ll get our Armalite rifles back.

Where did I “tout CPC talking points” or deny that the CPC is dead?

Did you reply to the wrong comment?

That’s fair. No, I was pointing out that the LPC is actually not bringing up gun laws in the news at all and from the looks of it, things are getting lax as far as Armalite is concerned. If we keep talking about it, it stays fresh in everyone else’s minds.

It was the LPC that banned the AG42 and many others via undemocratic OIC.

WTF are you talking about?

“Things are getting lax as far as Armalite is concerned.”

Are you high?

Stop bringing attention toward the issue. Take a hint!
