    Enfield sporter stock sets?

    Does anyone have a nice one of these they don't need. I have a project No.4 Mk 1which cannot be return to full military configuration and I'd like at least to give her some dignity and a decent retirement. Ideally a nice dark wood and monte carlo buttstock. None of this plastic nonsense, thats what she is wearing now.

    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I might can oblige; would like to bring a 1933 Trials No. 4 sporter back into fighting trim. It will take a lot of work, but a nice set of wood would be a good start.
    Think you might have something?

    My first step would be to try and find the person who did the sporterization on the chance that he might still have the removed parts around somewhere, or know where they went.

    Stranger things have happened!

    As you know I'm sure, the forened used on the trials No.4 rifles had a slightly different profile around the action than later types.
