Wow. Stock looks like it was shaped for use on a camel. The Arabs like to hold the stock under the armpit. It's worth $10.00, I will double that and give her $20.00. Need address to send money please. :)
 
Thanks for your reply she want to give it to a family member who wants to buy it. So, I just I’ll teller to just give it to him...l want to shoot it first.
 
It looks interesting to say the least. Do you know the history behind it, how it came into your family ?
 
The Enfields have a pretty straight stock making it hard for some to line up the sights. Looks like the stock work was to get the cheek lower for aiming. It still has some value, an original lock is probably worth $150. I would put the value of the gun in that range.
 
The value of the remaining parts exceeds the value of the gun as is. Someone wanting /needing some Enfield parts might go $250, a parts seller would lowball it. It makes a great wall hanger and might even be able to be brought up to shooting condition without a lot of work. Unfortunatly there isn't much interest in military firearms that have been cut down and smoothbored.
 
I agree that it is more valuable as parts than as a gun...btw-I would like to see the size of the guy's face that trimmed that stock down for his cheek!!!!
