👉 The Lee-Enfield, commonly known as the Lee Weapon, is a bolt-action semi-automatic rifle that was widely used during World War II and beyond. Developed by the Lee-Metford Company in the UK, it was adopted by numerous military forces around the world, including the British Army, Indian Army, and various Commonwealth nations. The Lee-Enfield features a unique design with a bolt that is secured by a spring-loaded mechanism, allowing for rapid and reliable fire. It uses a 5.45x39mm cartridge and has been praised for its accuracy, reliability, and ease of maintenance. Despite being largely replaced by more modern firearms in many contexts, the Lee-Enfield remains a symbol of military precision and has seen a resurgence in popularity among collectors and enthusiasts.
