This is a game ready 3d model of a British infantry rifle Lee Enfield, the Rifle No 5 Mk I variant (aka Lee-Enfield Jungle Carbine). The Lee–Enfield is a bolt-action, magazine-fed repeating rifle that served as the main firearm used by the military forces of the British Empire and Commonwealth during the first half of the 20th century. It was the British Army's standard rifle from its official adoption in 1895 until 1957. The WWI versions are often referred to as the SMLE, which is short for the common Short, Magazine, Lee–Enfield variant. The Rifle No. 5 Mk I, was a derivative of the British Lee–Enfield No. 4 Mk I, following experience of jungle fighting in the Pacific War the British came to the conclusion that a rifle shorter and lighter than the standard issue, bolt action .303 cal No. 4 rifle was required. However its operational use was in post-war colonial campaigns such as the Malayan emergency, where it gained its common nickname of the Jungle Carbine. Production began in March 1944, and finished in December 1947.
