Lithgows of WW2

**Demo** · 07-15-2011 07:19 AM

Hello gents,

I've been wanting to take this photo for a while. My lithgows from 1939 to 1945 action dates. The 1939 at the front has a replaced forend and I suspect butt also but the others are matching, excellent to new bores. 39 and 40 are maple.

I have detailed photo's of all these rifles if there are any request.

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.

Thanks Ned. Not sure which would be best shooter. They'd all be better than I'm capable that's for sure.

Need a 13 and 38 to round up the lot. There is a 1913 on offer to me know but I can't afford it.

Andrew very nice indeed, wondered when you were going to start showing some of your vast collection.
