    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 ...

    The first question anyone will ask is that is it a genuine ex Navy N9 rifle or a sleeved No4 dressed up as a No9. In any case, if you want a ball park, that question has to be answered. But the only TRUE price is the auction price

    It is a genuine one, with all the correct markings as per the skinnerton book, I purchased it many years ago when I was collecting Enfields. It is very good condition and I want to sell it, I could attach pictures if anyone is interested.
    I am looking for a ballpark value
    Thanks for your reply

    Suggest you look on rifleman.org for info on these - if you havnt already done so. They seem to be pretty scarce - even the dressed-up ones.

    I have an ersatz Nr 9 and am unlikely to ever get rid of it - its a really enjoyable rifle to shoot.

    Value is difficult but it wouldnt surprise me to see any owner asking £800 - £1000 (or more)for a genuine one in the UKicon
