Check out the machining on this Inland trigger housing - Type 1?

**USGI** · 12-04-2014 11:30 PM

This eBay auction has good clear pics, but doesn't show everything. Do you guys think the machining is a bit unusual? Could it be a Type 1? Thanks! - Bob

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Was thinking I needed to see the front to determine if Type 1 - wrong! The wide rear wall gives it away as a Type II. Still, the machining is different from what I've seen. - Bob

Any guess as to what it will sell for? Maybe $150 or more?

Looks like they put a new guy on the milling machine.

And the guy putting on the "Inland" logo covered for him! - Bob

Being pretty didn't make it function any better and as long as it functioned properly who cared what it looked like so it was used. Carbines when it was made were listed as critical. But your right it does look a bit ugly.

It's going to go for a good price. Maybe a little rough, but looks honest to me - neat that it's not been "blasted" and reparked. - Bob

The same seller has a highwood Saginaw stock that's at 530 right now. It has well defined type 2 or 3 barrel band marks too. Makes me want to sell my Saginaw highwood that doesn't have the wider band marks on it.

Well, I can see that my guess was way off! Still another day to go. - Bob

Here's a completed auction on a rear sight that surprised me. Do you think the buyer will try to repair that receiver? - Bob
