1905 Ross Mark II** Target Rifle With History, Empress of Ireland - Halifax Explosion

**Ian Kinder** · 12-26-2012 08:04 PM

Hello Everyone,

This may sound like an odd request but I happen to come across some information from one of your members on this site discussing a 1905 Ross Mark II, Target Rifle that was owned by a Captain A. Murray, who had been the Captain of the Empress of Britain icon

for most of his career and commanded the Empress of Ireland for a brief period.
This gentlemen commented on that he has a picture of Captain Murray holding his rifle and I would like to get intouch with this gentlemen and talk with him about this picture as I am writing a book about the Empresses.
Thank you

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.
