    N0.1 Mk.V and Longbranch DCM conversion.

    Been a very good week. First I came across a very nice LB No.4 Mk.1* Canadianicon DCM conversion rifle. Rifle is in overall excellent ++ condition. Complete and original. Bore is pristine. And, as an added bonus it has a nice PH5C rear sight. Paid $1000. A little high maybe but hey, when was the last time anybody has seen one for sale ? Today a very nice No.1 mk.V found me. 1924 dated S/N A13. Complete and original with matching numbers. Overall excellent condition. This is the seventh Mk.V I've had over the years and one of the nicest. Over the years I have sold off five of the first six keeping only the best one. Sold the last of the five seven years back and the least I have ever sold one for was $800. Today I paid $800 for this one.

    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.
