"Enfield" refers to the Royal Small Arms Factory in Enfield, United Kingdom, and the name "Enfield" is applied to small arms manufactured or designed by the Royal Small Arms Factory (even if they didn't come specifically from the Enfield factory). There are several models of pistols and rifles which bear the name "Enfield", the most famous of which is the Short Magazine Lee Enfield rifle.
