Mk2 Oilers, Rare?

Picked these up recently, one is inspector marked and other isn't(commercial?)

Are there many others out there?

Borderline rare and very hard to find. You got two? Nice find!

I've never seen one. Thanks for showing us.

:eek: Given the numbers of Long Toms in NZ those oilers are very seldom seen. Scrapped for their brass perhaps when the rifles were disposed before WW2. Very jealous

There is a dealer in the USA who will sell you as many as you want......for $85 each.

Who the dealer?

SMLE Oilers

I sold one on fleabay a while back - went to someone here in England for not all that much, and someone I knew slightly as well, the Yanks must have been asleep at the switch that week.
