Enfield SMLE No1 Mk3, Fix Bayonets

[@donavankirkland358]

I’m all about modern warfare, but something about those old time rifles with a bayonet hit the soul

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

Full heartedly agreed

[@jaymie855]

Yeah. Not one, but a lot of souls. Like 16.5 millions souls.

A beautiful rifle and bayonet. Good shoting! I love the sound of the mag when the bolt picks up a new round to the chamber.

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

Thank you kindly!

YYYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHH BEST BOLT RIFLE EVER MADE

[@LNixon-d2r]

Hi, I am British, and I am so proud that we invented this bad ass rifle. Magazines can also be loaded into the rifle, so you don't need to waste time on the battlefield with stripper clips. Also, the bolt has an internal spring attached , which makes it rather quick to pull back the bolt, giving you the opportunity to almost turn the rifle into a semi automatic.

[@Beowulf__]

Magazines weren’t intended to be loaded into the rifle, and the noises of the stripper clips are beautiful.

[@GooGoosh22]

The spring doesn't help to rack the bolt, it cock the striker. The spring only pushes the bolt backward if the gun is already cocked, wish it isn't after you fired. One thing that make the action of the Enfield faster than other bolt action of it's time is because it's cock on close which is mechanically faster to operate, and the bolt has a 60° rotation compared to the 90° of typical bolt action of this time.

[@LNixon-d2r]

​@Beowulf__ actually British troops during ww2 were armed with magazines too by the way!

[@eoin6581]

A brilliant rifle and bayonet, thanks again for making these videos.

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

Thanks for watching!

[@tonyhamady498]

Excellent Thomas 🙏👌😉💯❤️

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

Thank you kindly!

[@mothmagic1]

This guy is used to things like Mausers and Springfields. The SNLE does not require lifting your cheek from the stock to reload.

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

You’re not wrong, it’s definitely a force of habit

[@matheusfelipedasilvateixei57]

O melhor fuzil de ferrolho da segunda guerra mundial na minha opinião

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

It’s definitely in the top 3 for me

[@LNixon-d2r]

Wow watch again, that bolt action, so quick and smooth! Almost semi auto rifle.

[@nickyminter4271]

Nice example of the SMLE and ‘ running the bolt ‘ Thomas . 👍 Where was the firearm produced?

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

Thanks! This one was produced at RSAF Enfield 👍🏻

[@jeroenstefan]

Nice! I have one of those 1907 bayonets, still in great condition, wish I could own the rifle too though.

[@tommyg770]

Damn thats satisfying 😊 another great vid! Keep em coming!

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

Thank you kindly!

[@KAI19772011]

The best British rifle in my collection an I even got a lend and lease gun made at savage.

[@sarabjeetsingh821]

[@monke_cuz]

I was going to subscribe but then I realized I already have 😂

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

Well I’m glad to have won you over twice!

[@LNixon-d2r]

10 fucking rounds!

[@jamesvatter5729]

Still searching for a bayonet like that!

[@GreatNorthwestWeaponry]

They’re pretty darn cool!

[@TheTRD_1914]
