A well known internet auction site remove wooden butt stock listing because it doesn't "comply" with their firearms policy. Apparently listing of rifle butts is not currently permitted (except for the ones that still are).

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.

TRY M-16 , AR-15 even SP-1. results very thin. Has made finding retro parts rather iffy.

I once tried to get one of these morons to explain what their gun parts "policy" was, they had no answer. Somewhat akin to havng an IRS agent answer a tax question over the phone. Some things never change...

Just trying to understand their thinking is difficult at times.

The other item that was taken down a while ago, from the same site, was my "Victory Bell" because they said it was "Nazi related" even though there are no nazi symbols on it. I did argue with them over it but didn't get anywhere because they insisted that because the aluminium came from a shot-down German icon

aircraft, it was "Nazi related" and it made no difference that it had been melted down to cast the bell. By this token you could say that anything made of metal, especially steel, since 1945, is/could be "Nazi related". This is because it is common practice to use a certain amount of recycled metal in the production of new metal.

As with (too) many things, Common Sense is no longer as common as it once was, unfortunately.

The seller's listing probably said it was for an "Uzi", one of the most evilest of guns!
