So Guys, is there something I missed about this rifle or was it just a pile of bits as agreed when I purchased it, I've had it a long time and paid about $150 for it total with some missing parts. Do...
I have a 1908 LSA rifle sold out of service, then obviously given back and ended up in Pakistan, they have overstamped the L to resemble a PSA but a close look and it becomes obvious.
Hi Edward, Yes I believe so, There's a little Tiny 's' first, closest to the top corner near the bolt Body, then the number overstamped or a squiggled inverted 7 overstamped by the number 8 or...
I have one of these rifles that I have converted to a sniper rifle Knockoff never realized it was anything special. I did write in once and question the fact that the whole trigger group is stamped...
Hi,
I would be most grateful for any help, as I know nothing about Swiss rifles. I have what can only be described as a very unique rifle it's a K31 Barrelled action with matching bolt in 7.5...
I have one of these too, but I've never seen another until now, Mine is a matching BSA-made rifle, not sure if it's a WW1 issue or WW2, it's seen use, The salt spray has left its mark. I was given it...
Hi Peter,
I saw a post of yours the other day, re:- attaching scopes with epoxy resins/Bonding agents, I think it was regarding a WW1 smle re-pop. Just to let you know, the...
Hi Promo,

Hi Roger,

Hi Roger,
Sorry again for the delay, I'm still waiting on a replacement Battery, so I'm going to keep this short in the hope I actually get to post it this time. I'll be only too...
Thanks Gil, nice rifles eh!, I love em. Smle too but the long rifles really float my boat. All the best Ian.
Hi Roger,
Thank you very much for all the photo's on these rifles, really appreciated. Sorry for not responding sooner, but my laptop has decided to only charge intermitantly and...
Hi Roger,
I'm in your debt again, no I haven't seen those two before, very interesting and they sound like the rifles in question. I found this mention of these early war fixed...
Hi there,
Sorry to be a pest again, but I'm still trying to track down early WW1 1914-1916 type sniper rifles. I recently found a post, in a thread, on the WW1 forum, that mentioned...
Sorry Paul,
Heard That one all my life, but I was fairly sure that's what I'd seen them called, with a name like Ian Sutherland, I do know better, just assumed some other bloody...
Hi Tiriaq,
That's what I was told it was by the guy who ran the Ross Rifle sight, a few years ago, sorry about the pictures not being done, it just won't allow me to upload them at...
Hi tiriaq,
Thanks for your reply, your right the rifles issued to and seen in most photos are MK III's, however, as I wanted an original rifle for shooting and I've never seen one...
Hi Cinders,
I'll try and get some pictures up tomorrow, along with an old newspaper clipping of a WW1 Canadian sniper using what they describe as a" special rifle", no front sight...
Hi,
I'm looking for some opinions, before I go and do anything drastic, as I'm sure some out there know better than I, and if you would be so kind as to offer your opinion, I'll be most...
Hi Patrick,
Thanks very much for that advice. I few a few old Guns like that too, but I don't think I'd be brave enough to trust pulling them apart, although I'm so tempted with...
Hi Skiprat,

Hi All,
Sorry this is so late in coming, but I would like to thank you all for taking the time to respond to my question. Sorry to have been so tardy, I've been quite ill for the last...
Hi,
Wondering if there's anyone who can help me out there, as I'm building my first Muzzleloader. I've been reading what I can find, about Patented Breach or Chamber Designs for Muzzle loading...
Hi Roger,
Thanks again, that's what I thought, and I've even seen a picture of a CLLE fitted with that mount,for sale in Australia, but it's got a good sized bid on it so I wondered...
Hello All,
I was wondering if anyone has seen the latest WW1 Sniper scope listing on ebay, It looks like a German Scope with British style reticle to me. One that's been fitted...
