In this video we take a look at the Enfield No5 MkI chambered in .303 British, better known as the "Jungle Carbine." We take this old girl out to 300 yards and give a few tips on accurately verifying a real No5 against the commercial variants produced over the years. Stay tuned, much more on the way.

I have a jungle carbine that has a solid bolt handle because my older brother bought it out of a barrel and swapped out the bolt and magazine not realizing that they were are supposed to have matching serial numbers.

I have two Enfields, absolutely love both of them. One is my wife's father's,father's circa 1914. The other one is circa 1915 and is my go to deer gun. It came to me with the original scope base which has a Redfield 4x12. To me it is a perfect deer gun. I run Hornady match 174gr hollow points and with gun grease on the bolt it is smooth as a baby's bottom. Both are Mk1 Mod3. The only thing necessary for evil to flourish is for a few good men to do nothing

[@GeorgiaBoy1961]

@ oldwarhorseretired6536 - Many folks call the Lee-Enfield "the 30-30 of Canada" since many in the north will tell you that the .303 British has accounted for more game across the (former) British Empire than any other firearm and cartridge... and it is not hard to believe at all. The Canadian Rangers only turned theirs in a few years ago, and they needed to be able to handle the biggest, meanest bears, if that situation arose. So, just like you are liable to find an old 30-30 lever-action in many a farmer and rancher's truck here in the 'States, you'll find a Lee-Enfield in that Canadian counterpart.

[@Omega59er]

My No4 Mk 2 with a 0 bolthead hates Wolf ammo as well. I used to have a No4 Mk 2 with a 3 bolthead, and it would eat Wolf up all day, but accuracy at mid-range was poor. So nicer rifle, gotta feed it nicer ammo! Started typing this before the end of the video, and you guys mentioned the bolt heads! Thanks, guys. Gotta love Enfields.

[@les8518]

I have fired thousands of rounds out of the Jungle carbine and other Lee Enfields. Some advice. Go back to using the 174 gr solid nose projectile which is what they were designed for and forget and I mean forget about neck size. I was a professional hunter in New Zealand and also did a lot of target shooting with the .303. If you can get your hands on some of the ex military 174 gr . grab it. The age of it does not matter. Goodluck.

[@mwmcbroom]

Federal Ordnance, in Southern California, also made a conversion. I bought one back in 1993. Theirs is unique, however, in that it was made from a No1 MkIII platform. Engraved on the side of the reciever is "Jungle Rifle." It's a well made conversion, but its biggest drawback is its sight radius. With a barrel mounted rear sight and a shortened barrel, this has reduced the sight radius down to about 16". It's still fun to shoot within its limitations. But a Jungle Carbine it isn't.

Fired it a few times in 3 decades, kickback is great, I would like to get it back to original factory wood and front sight appearance as it looks good, yet just not a great shooting weapon.

Let me tell ya I was sweating like a beast, he had never hit it, so I was kinda proud of myself.

[@98ratboy]

Good info. on the number stamped on bolt head. Mine is stamped with a 3 and the spent brass gets pretty swelled on the case head.

[@nathanielbrooke708]

I would actually like to correct some designation issues there. 1. They were never built on the no4 MK2 actions, as the MK2 wasn't in manufacture until 1950s (including the 1/2 UK and the 1/3 US variants), they started life as a true no5 mk1 action adapted from the no4 mk1. 2. The no6 and the no7 were different altogether, the no7 was a repeater no4 trainer in .22lr. the no6 mk1 was the Australian experimental carbine based on the no1 mkIII action. 3. They were never built initially for jungle use, they were purely a replacement for glider based airborne troops, as the no4 were way too long, bulky and difficult to work in the cramped environments of a glider. They gained the term of the "jungle carbine" as they were used post war in Burma which is where they gained that term altogether. 4. The idealistic "wandering zero" is purely a bedding issue due to the cut down stock, but it isn't anything to do with the flash hider or the lightning cuts on the action, but still they perform within specs of the accepted accuracy for all of the British Enfield rifles of 2-4 MOA is acceptable, anything smaller is rare to find with military ammunition and any larger is still ok but outside of acceptance.

[@gregsummers7350]

Nice shooting of a rifle intended for up close and personal work in the jungle or close bush scrub. Wandering zero at under the 100 yds jungle engagement range was not a big issue. Good demo of the speed shooting technique. Recruits would practice with drill rounds and stripper clips in their barracks at night until they became very proficient and smooth in their technique. There recruit training test was shooting at 300 yards. The so called wandering zero issue was an aid to move to the FAL, a truly wonderful rifle.

[@eco_logic]

what did you mean with move to the FAL please?

[@GeorgiaBoy1961]

@@eco_logic - Re: "what did you mean with move to the FAL please?" The fact that the British Army was considering re-equipping with a self-loading rifle by that time, i.e., the late 1940s-early 1950s. Just as many post-war armies around the developed world were then doing. Bolt-action rifles had served long-and-well for many years by that time, but they were dated in terms of their capacity and rate of fire, the virtues of the ten-shot Lee-Enfield not withstanding. And changes in the doctrine of ground combat and the role of infantry small arms were also transforming at that time. The emphasis was less on precision, aimed fire at distance as it had been for the previous half-century or so, and more towards short-to-intermediate range engagements and a greater volume of fire. Ultimately, of course, these changes led to many armies adopting battle carbines or assault rifles, and many others - including the British Army in the Cold War - to adopting self-loading battle rifles. As great and lasting a rifle as the Lee-Enfield had been, every design has its day and eventually time and technology moves along. While still a perfectly capable weapon - the Indian Army didn't surrender theirs until the 1970s! - it could no longer claim to be cutting-edge technology. The venerable Lee-Enfield and its .303 cartridge lasted a very long time in the use of not just Britain, but the Commonwealths also. The Canadian Rangers only turned theirs in less than a decade ago, and they're far from the only example. Hunters around the globe in various spots will be hunting with them long after we've gone, one would imagine....

[@rogerj412]

The 'wandering zero' is actually a result of the receiver being milled to lighten the guns up. It's common misinformation about the flash hider being the cause so I don't fault Eric for saying that.

[@patmancrowley8509]

Eric, if it was the "barrel harmonics" from the flash hider then it would be happening with every shot not just when the barrel got hot. If my recollection serves me it was the lightening cuts on the receiver and the scallops on the barrel that causes the wandering zero. I seem to remember that being the determination of the British army's weapons testing group (whatever name they use).

The shorter barrel means that it is a stiffer barrel , so the length should not be a problem . now in target shooting a 150 grain projectile wont shoot consistently , no Enfield will shoot at its best with light projectiles . 175 appears to be their sweet spot . Another point to check is the flash hider , is it machined true to the barrel axces . Although it is not as bad as a badly crowned barrel it till has an influence in the projectile as it leaves the barrel . As for a good load , in target shooting some guys are using quite slow powders . with the standard length Enfield barrels it is nearly a case full , giving a recoil somewhere near a 243 . the projectile speed is the same because of the barrel length . some thing to think about .

The recoil from your no 5 is lower than some I have shot using the same ammo. I think the difference is in the bore diameter. Some are just tighter than others & will exhibit more pressure/recoil. Classic carbine for sure.

The cut outs in the stock ( lightweight construction) let the receiver do minimal movement while shooting and heating up. That is the reason for the wandering zero.
