Lee Enfield Mk V "Jungle Carbine"

The Rifle no.5 MKI, nicknamed the Jungle Carbine is a derivative of the existing Lee-Enfield no.4 Mk1, with the exception that it was modified to be more compactible within the confined jungle environment of the Far East. As expected from a carbine model, it had a compact design with a shorter barrel than the original. Apart from that however, there isn't much to differentiate from it to that aforementioned Lee Enfield No.4 model, with the Jungle carbine being similar in most other aspects. It was even chambered to fire the same .303 British cartridge, however with it's shortened Barrel, it's range was reduced but would have also made the weapon somewhat lighter and more maneuverable, more for Jungle warfare as it's name would suggest, as a compact weapon would make the marches throughout the forests far more comfortable and sightlines were often broken by either trees or mountains, causing enemy encounters to happen within shorter ranges. Although It's nickname associates it with combat in the Far east, it was actually originally designed to be used by Paratroopers and other airborne forces in Europe, with the weapon being introduced in March 1944, it however only saw limited use in the Second World War and production ultimately ended in 1947, with the weapon being deemed unsuitable for general issue due to certain design flaws that affected the rifle's accuracy. It also suffered from an impressive amount of recoil due to the power of the .303 British round that it fired, this most likely was also another reason why it was deemed unfavorable to use. Overall the weapon had a very short service life despite the fact that it was originally designed to be the successor of the Lee-Enfield no.4 line but it still saw use within certain British special forces units for several years in the Early Cold war-era, with examples being the Malayan emergency and the Korean War.

In Stick Hunger Games

The Jungle carbine is classified as a bolt-action sniper rifle in the Stick Hunger games. It chambers the .303 British round and has a magazine capacity of 10 rounds It has a low-overall damage for a weapon in the sniper rifle category however it does have a significantly faster rate of fire along with the fact it can fire continuously while sights are being aimed down along with it's perfectly decent overall damage even at longer ranges means that with aggressive play, it can easily compensate for it's shortcomings at longer ranges. It is however stuck with a long-reload time due to it having to reload one round at a time or with a pair of 5 round stripper clips. It should be noted that it does have higher than average recoil due to the combination of it's small frame and high-powered cartridge, It does not have an attachments by default.
