Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
As the need for new rifles increased by the late 1930s, the Rifle, No. 4 Mk I was officially adopted in 1941. The No. 4 action was similar to the No.1 Mk VI, but stronger and easier to mass-produce. Unlike the SMLE, the No. 4 Lee-Enfield barrel protruded from the end of the forestock, without a nose cap. The charger bridge was no longer rounded for easier machining. The iron sight line was redesigned and featured a rear receiver aperture battle sight calibrated for 300 yd (274 m). Moreover, it had an additional ladder aperture sight calibrated for 200-1,300 yd (183-1,189 m) in 100 yd (91 m) increments. This sight, along with other aperture sights, proved to be faster and more accurate than the typical mid-barrel open rear sight elements sight lines offered by Mauser, previous Lee-Enfields or the Buffington battle sight of the M1903 Springfield.
In comparison to the No. 1 Mk. III, the No. 4 rifle was heavier, mainly due to its heavier build.

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
During the early 1930s, a trial batch of 2,500 No. 4 Mk. I rifles was produced. These rifles resembled the No. 1 Mk. VI, but with a flat left side and without chequering on the furniture. Some examples from this batch are dated 1931 and 1933. In 1941-1942, about 1,400 of these rifles were converted to No. 4 MK. I (T) sniper rifles at RSAF Enfield.
