To find the value advertise it well pre auction then auction it.
$369 is a steal of a good pickup for you.
For insurance just pick a number because of its rarity.

There is no approximate value for that rifle. What ever you paid for that extremely rare rifle is the value for you and only you.

Your bench is tidy in comparison to my shed or reloading bench. :bow: :clap:
What ever is on the rifle when it leaves service is correct.

Sounds like you have been doing some research on Australia. But the Aussies have gone one better they are now closing down Agriculture. Apparently Australia doesn't need food producers.
Use a Lee Neck collet die, only use a full length body die when chambering becomes very firm and then sparingly.
If there are no grip slots in your cocking piece and no half cock you have a war time shortcut. These rifles were recalled and fitted with the correct cocking piece after the war. Be HAPPY you have a...

I will buy in.
Rifles sent into a Baltic country by the Brits.
This was in a thread some time back. I dont remember the whole story but it was very interesting to say the least.
As my Grandfather said to me .Don't be a butcher when the correct tools are handy. My Father didn't say anything i just got walloped if i didn't take noticed of the cough before hand.

That sight is adjustable with the proper tool.
Check the length for a SLR sling.
But not in green for ww1.
Me thinks a Kiwi Mk1* should not wear a green post WW2 sling any way.
The rifle is beyond a FTR. Having said that it is in its current shape more than passable truck rifle which could be enhanced with a scope using a side mount so the open sights could still be used.
Thankyou for the effort. Your work is very informative.

you left the pink off the list or shouldn't i ask.

You say you have excess head space. How have you come to this concussion. There are many factors that can give false indicators.

From my research is this not a forerunner /experimental before the L42A1 was sealed.
