    New K31

    A few pics of K31icon recently purchased.

    All matching with owner tag under butt plate.

    SN indicates 1951 manufacture.

    I didn't get a steal (paid $400) on this, but I am happy to have a nice correct example of K31 and was able to see what I was buying. Probably will be my only K31, so glad to have one in good condition.

    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.

    Might be your only K31icon but it has to have a K11 to go with it, then a 1911, then a 1889, then a Vetterli.

    Nice rifle. More recent manufacture than most I've seen, should be a great shooter!

    Very nice. Can I ask where you purchased it?

    Purchased at Gander Mountain in Minnesota.

    Don't know if it was a trade-in or if they bought from distributor. They do stock some Mil-Surps.

    My buddy just picked one up at Gander in forest lake the other day. He got a very nice walnut stocked 1942. They had no idea what they had there.

    You'll forget all about the price after you've shot your first sub-MOA group. Bear in mind what the cost of that rifle would be if it was new-about $1500 to $2000. Best quality materials and workmanship.
