An inferior bolt-action rifle when compared to the Mauser type. Reason why this is true:
 
The Mauser has a very fast bolt action not as fast as the Lee enfield but still really fast. The Mauser is more accurate. The Mauser fires a MUCH better RIMLESS bullet. The Mauser has controlled round feeding (this means that if you are upside down it will still load),
 
The Mauser has a MUCH stronger bolt with 3 locking lugs. The Lee enfield might have a faster bolt but if the stupid rimmed cartridge is misplaced it could screw up the gun and you would need to stop and unjam it. The Mauser is much more rugged. The Mauser is very simple unlike the Lee enfield. The Mauser rifle series has 102 million military rifles built from 1871 to the 1950's, and that is not including all of the modern hunting and military sniper rifles built right now.

The Lee enfield might have a faster bolt but if the stupid rimmed cartridge is misplaced it could screw up the gun and you would need to stop and unjam it. The Mauser is much more rugged. The Mauser is very simple unlike the Lee enfield. The Mauser rifle series has 102 million military rifles built from 1871 to the 1950's, and that is not including all of the modern hunting and military sniper rifles built right now.
