    Info on What a Country

    Was just surfing the web and came across their site. I have an Inland that I want to get a new stock for. It does not matter who made it as I figure that would be more accurate. My question is what is their reputation? Just seemed like the price on their M1icon Carbine stocks and Sling sets was a bit low but maybe I was wrong.

    Thanks.

    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.

    they have been pretty decent on authenticity, but if you actually go for their collector stocks, they are pretty high priced. i wanted a T2 NPM, and they wanted 300+. 400 for a winnie, but doesnt hurt to ask

    Thanks for asking the question I have always wanted to ask....From the few reviews I have read they are supposed to be OK...But other then the guy from Franceicon, they have also been selling lots of SM CO. slings on ebay although not often..May I ask a question, the slings they sell look authentic but my question is; Do you think the markings are legit or they put them on and make them look old to increase the price 3-4x? Its just that all the slings they sell on ebay are always SM Co...

    Here are some recent listings;

    Here's the guy from France who seems to have a sh-tload of SM Co.;

    SEMI-OFF TOPIC: Sorry to take the opportunity. Is this sling legit?



    Thanks again to the original poster & whats your take gentlemen? TIA!!

    I've purchased several stocks from them and have been very happy.

    Nice condition, nice markings, and they are just perfect for the typical SG carbine. I bought two collector stocks and they were exactly as advertised and I thought the prices were fair.

    I just bought a really sweet Trimble TN marked stock for my NPM from them. These people will take as much time with you as you need, they do everything they can to make sure the stock is described as accurately as is humanly possible, in fact, the one I bought is even better than he described.They are very honest and honestly from her on out, unless I know the person I am buying from and trust them I will only buy from What a country.They went out of their way to help me and make sure I was 100%happy with my purchase and I sincerely appreciate all their help and the efforts they made.I will be buying more from them soon.
    PS No I dont work for them, Im just a very happy customer.

    I bought a pretty nice MU-marked stock & handguard with a well defined cartouche for $170 plus shipping. Hand picked by Dwayne.
