Price at 325.00 is more than fair. Appears to be in pretty decent condition and as mentioned the dark bore isn't a great concern.

My 1st reply as I am a "newbie"
I am located in Canada and collect Enfields and others, If I found a good shape all wood original configuration Long Branch I would pay $325.00 without blinking, mag or not and would not be concerned if mismatched at that price, hey, you can barely buy a Long Branch sporter for less that $250 in Canada, if your lucky! If I was offered a Matched Long Branch without the mag I would not hesitate to buy at a lot more than $325. maybe just me but they are getting harder to come by
From what I have been seeing lately is that the milsurps have been cheaper up there than in the states. I would love to have a SVT 40 but here they go for $900+ and you guys can get them for $250! Just to get a SVT 40 from Canada would be pure hell and probably a lot of money to go through all the BS paperwork and fees. I'm still debating whether or not to get it. Money is tight and I thought of getting rid of two of my other C&R rifles but I was told that it is frowned upon selling when you have an 03 FFL.

FYI: SVT40 rifles have been banned from import to the USA since 1988. Lee Enfield rifles in Canada bring MORE money than they do here and there's a much smaller market.
