    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Here's a interesting one....
    A early 4 digit Inland.
    To bad someone went wild with the steel wool.
    Damn painters had to make sure they splattered paint specks on the stock also.

    Charlie, it will be interesting to see what the early 4-digit Inland brings. Would love to redue the stock.....Frank

    Not so sure about that Underwood... and just 4 bids?

    We offer a 3 day return policy no questions asked, but we do charge a 20% restocking fee for all returned items. All items must be returned in the same condition they were sent at the buyer’s expense. After the 3 days all items are Sold As Is.

    That is $360 plus the shipping to return it.... hmmmm.... Is this a direct from CMPicon racker with a low serial number??? Did anyone see a parts list?

    Underwood - same with the safety and barrel band. also the wear on the metal doesnt match. also, refinished barrel, and wrong trigger housing.

    with a dirtly barrel like that, such wear on the metal, and no pic of the internals. it wont have a dogleg hammer no matter what

    The barrel band looks fresh out of the parkerizing tank! And someone is going to pay big bucks for that turd. I'll take three rackers from the CMPicon over that thing.
