I should add mine was imported by me from Australia to NZ

Sold mine a few months ago for $1600 Canadian. All matching numbers, wood almost pristine, excellent barrel. Was asking $2000 and had no bites til I moved on the price.

I paid $2000 for mine and it has a very tight mint bore. Possibly a bit much, but i did not have one at the time.

Bought mine a year ago in Arizona USA for $750 usd and imported it to Canada. Total cost with importation was $1450 cad

It just occurred to me that you guys talking about your ShtLE Mk V...should be showing us at the same time. We'd love to see more of these...

1924 all matching. I paid $800 USD, almost 10 years ago.

Talking of Mk5's....... Does anyone have one of the 18 shilling conversions from a Mk3? The rear sight mounting is brazed on to the body and then machined in situ and very difficult to tell BUT you can just see the feint outline of the braze. They usually have the original barrel with the rearsight holes visible.

My 1924, purchased back in 1992

That's better, very nice...!

I also have a 1924 ShtLE MkV bought in 1992. I paid $740 but it still wasn't cheap back then.I'm happy I got it though.Attachment 74832Attachment 74833Attachment 74834
