    Thanks for sharing!
    I have written on the design of the racks and it is posted by JONA as a sticky on the Lee Enfield Forum on Gunboards.

    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. Brian Dick ...

    No, they are real. I have been in the Pattern Room and while their racks are nice--they are far to bulky to fit in normal surroundings.

    Alas, it's not even the Pattern Room now, and even worse, not under the control of the Ministry of Defence either. Just a civilian sort of a, well, quango as we call them in Englandicon

    Now that the collection is under civillian control, I wonder how long it will be before someone has them taken "off the streets". For the greater good of course.
