Envoy offerd on Gunbroker
Good Day,
There was recently a very nice Envoy (serial number is 459) offered on Gunbroker. I assumed it was marked "ENVOY 7.62 m/m",manufacture date and serial number. It was only bid up to $2100 and did not meet the reserve. Of the 7.62 chambered Enfield variations, these are amongst the rarest seen offered in the US. This one was proper with the correct mag, finish, sights, etc. I'm surprised it didn't receive more attention.

L39A1 & ENVOY receiver markings
Good Day,
The seller indicated that the rifle would not be relisted. I don't have a problem with reserves per se, but it REALLY cranks me when a seller thinks the reserve price is classified:protest:. Such a position befuddles me and turns me off from bidding. If I can afford it- I bid. If not-I don't. Sounds simple doesn't it.... off my soap box!
It would have been nice had the auction shown the actual markings but I feel 75%+ that the rifle was correct:headbang:. The clean lines of the receiver (please see the attached pictures), finish (Suncorite) and stock work "looks" correct. Of course, I'd reserve final judgment based on a closer inspection:icon_wink:
Best Always,
Michael
