Collector’s / Shooter’s Note:
Golden State Arms/Santa Fe imported and remanufactured surplus Enfields into sporting rifles
under house names like “1941 Supreme”
and “Mountaineer.” They advertised multiple models at different price points, most based on the No.4
platform, often with 22″ barrels
and side-scope provisions. These rifles are part of the post-war American sporter history and remain practical .303 hunters with a neat California-custom backstory.
