    The R/H in the ad refers to it being a right handed rifle. When you place an ad on Guntrader, they ask if it's a right handed or left handed gun...

    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.

    And they are notorious for hard extraction issues

    We are promised that Gavin's rifles will not have extraction issues......

    Yes - I've only fired one Imbel that didn't suffer - not sure why that one was so good, but ironically it was a metric L1A1 clone! (The other half dozen or so I've tried could be fine one minute, then awful the next!)

    Reading from the piece of paper that I was making notes on while talking to him on the phone it's an L1A1 from A.C.

    Will try MEN first then, not as pokey as RG in my Enforcer. Also not much RG available anymore. I have about 200 rounds left.
    Has anyone used the Trilux in the 'old days'. Is it feasable to hold under/over for 200 and 600 yrds?

    Guys
    RG and Milsurplus in general will NOT cycle well in these rifles, I have made that very cler in all correspondance. They are chambered in .308 and will have no issues at all with .308 RWS / RUAG and the stuff generally available. If anyone feels they have (in any way) been misled or misinformed about ammunition suitability - please return the rifle to us immediately for a 100% refund. I will also pay collection.
    Best
    Gavin
