.303 e.a.l.

**Trev** · 04-11-2011 06:49 PM

Hello

I just aquired a Enfield Essential Agencies LTD .303 Serial# is in the 1500's.
It looks like it has shot very few rounds if any at all. I got it from the estate of a man who was in the RCAF. Two questions...One.. What is it worth? but more importantly how do i get a 5 or 10 round Magazine for it?

Thanks for any help

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.

That serial number range makes it a commerical EAL. Any No4 10 shot magazine will fit...if you're looking for the correct one it should be "CA" marked. Value depends on condition and any modifcations. Can you post a picture? Ron

I will try and add some pictures.

It's pretty simple. Look at the top of any forum and you'll see "sticky" threads for help marked in BLUE, which go over the process (with pictures) step by step ...

How do I show pics from Photobucket, Flickr, ImageShack etc. on milsurps.com? (click here)

How do I upload pictures to my posts for storage on milsurps.com? (click here)

If you still can't figure out how to post pics, then simply email them to me at badger@milsurps.com and I'll host and post them for you under your name in this thread.

Regards,
Doug

As for your 5 round mags, they show up time to time. There were two on the table behind mine at the Calgary show. He didn't sell them either. They'll be there next year.

A little off topic but I ran the numbers through DND and there still remain 164 of the EALs in the CF Depots.

There also is a number of EAL profile rifles in the mapping section as well. They have the same configuration as the EAL but have Long Branch serial numbers.

Well don't just stand there. Go get em for us.
I'd love one.
