Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Very nice Enfield No.2 Mk1. I can.t remember what the one I had back in 1975 used as ammo. but I had the same problem finding any at all. I think the model I had was very close to .45 ACP and someone suggested I try the moon clips with .45 ACP. I did not do this but traded it for a real Colt .45 1911.The guy I traded it to was the one that suggested the moon clips. Never saw him or the gun again.JGC
