New member, purchased my first M1 carbine

**Sproducts** · 03-03-2011 01:13 AM

Standard products ser# 2075xxx. No sling or oiler, later make rear sight, safety and mag release. Marlin barrel with a 'P' imprint. Very clean and shiny bore. Wood has some minor dings but it adds character. I payed $ 400 for her. Looks nice standing next to my ARs and others. Anyway, thanks for having me.

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.

Welcome Sproducts,
We'd love to see your new find.
I too am in Michigan and have been on the hunt for a Stan Pro for sometime now.

Cheers,

Range report today. From 3-5 inches att 125 meters with remmy fmj. Im sure it could be tightend up a bit as i didnt adjust the sites. Do you all think i got a fair price ?

Yes you did.

**imarangemaster** · 03-10-2011 07:24 AM

3-5 at 125 meters? That's very good. My Inland does 3" at 100 and I am tickled. At $400, even for an import mixmaster, you did VERY well! Welcome. Pics are necessary, however, to keep us happy. We need occasional influxes of new carbine porn!
