Find out the serial number to that rifle. I believe I sold it last year.
Do what John Wyatt said a light wipe down with Mineral Spirits and wipe dry. This will take off some dirt. Then mix 30% turpentine and 70% BLO. Rub it in real good and let it set over night. If...
When I picked this one up the other day I was really pleased that I didn't have to spend a lot of time cleaning and restoring it. Took it to the range and it shoots as good as it looks! This one is a...
Hey I'll show you pictures of mine if you show me yours first.:yikes:
That's a keeper. I bought a Correct Grade Springfield and HRA a year and half maybe two years ago and they look very similar. They were around $950 then. I think the HRA was $25 more. You would be...
Do these markings on the bottom of the stock look like they are from John Jovino?
People keep mentioning that the copper strips maybe missing in the draws. I have asked many time what that means and if they are missing or damaged will it damaged the rifle? Please if someone knows...
What happens if the copper strips are missing? Does it hurt to shoot it without them?
Surpmil,
Are you saying the barrel is a BSA?
Here is a picture of the crack. Will it start cracking worse will I shoot it?
Hey Chris,
The top of the stock on the left side that butts up to the receiver is slightly cracked is it still ok to shoot it?

Son,
Sorry to offend you by taking a picture with the rifle cocked. I did it out of ignorance. It really doesn't matter to me if it has all the correct markings because it was a gift from a very...
I'm certainly one of the lucky ones this week. I would like to show you some pictures of my new rifle. This rifle has a little bag or kit on the sling which includes bore patches and a small can of...
Don't you think the stock looks dry? What would be good to rub it down with, boiled linseed oil? Should it just be rubbed down with a soft cloth?
I still don't have the sling on it but here are some pictures. The bore is bright and shiney and looks like its going to be a good shooter. I have some Garands but I have never shot an 03/A3.
I've...
Well I just get this real nice 03-A3 and received my Turner sling and having some trouble getting the sling on correctly. Any ideas?
Remember gandog, any other rifle than an Enfield is just a rifle. You need to do some trading.:cheers:
If you could post some good pictures the appraisals would be more accurate. Depending on what part of the country your from $225 to $350 would be a swag.
Sure Gandog56 but what about the next 6 you acquire in the next 6 months?
From the picture you got a nice one. Who made it? Take some close up shots. So when are you getting your next one?
SMLE Lithgow. The SMLE's just look good!:beerchug:
Hi Guys,
New to the thread and new to some areas of collecting. I seem to have caught some kind of bug with the Enfields. The more I learn about them the more I want. I just bought a couple last...
