    Located a Winchester

    I was at my local gun shop yesterday and spied a 1.33 mil Winchester with all the early accouterments. The stock was the only thing not original. It was a cut down to low wood Inland type I. Well worn but original nonetheless. Price, $1200.00. Ouch! It's there on consignment and the shop owner, Ernie, said the owner would not budge on the price. It almost looks chromed the finish was so worn I'll try to get some pictures tomorrow.

    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.

    It is amazing how people go nuts over Winchesters. I'll bet that on average, there is a 30% higher price just for that name. While they are great weapons, they are no better than say a NPM or IBM. I do admire the fact that they made most of their own parts including the wood, but beyond that they are just a good gun. In my experience, they have a tougher finish than some.

    Bill, is that a spring tube?

    I did not get back to the shop where the carbine was. I went to his other shop but I may get there this week.
