Got a pic of the whole rifle?
The "Santa Fe" on the magazine makes me think it's a converted "Santa Fe Jungle Carbine," you might google that. _________________ Steve Benefactor Life Member, National Rifle Association Life Member, Second Amendment Foundation Patriot & Life Member, Gun Owners of America Life Member, Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Legal Action Supporter, Firearms Policy Coalition Member, NAGR/NFGR Please support the organizations that support all of us.

Enfield No 4 Mk 1 built by Savage Arms, converted by Golden State and apparently sporterized either during said conversion or after. Chambered in .303 Brit or converted to .308 Win? _________________ Rara Temporum Felicitas Ubi Sentire Quae Velis Et Quod Velis Dicere Licet. ― Tacitus "Well, nobody's perfect." ― Osgood Fielding III |

It could be what Golden State called the Santa Fe Mountaineer with that style stock.

That is a rimmed cartridge. 303 British. Although the actual bullet diameter is .312 if you decide to measure it

More info regarding the ammo. Ironic the threads have similar titles there and here.

Really too bad they converted that one... it was originally a US Property marked rifle made by Savage under the Lend/Lease program.
Most likely converted by Golden State as mentioned, or by someone later to emulate the Golden State Sante Fe (much less likely). |
