Ishapore 2A price check.

I see the 2A I posted about has now been reduced to $950.00 still way overpriced IMO.

enfield303t: I saw that too. Much rougher than mine which I purchased a couple of years ago for $500.00 from a dealer not known for bargains. The seller of the current one notes that he has tried to preserve as much of the "suncorite" as possible while cleaning which pretty much sums up the quality of the paint. New flakes break off mine every time I look at it.

Yes IMHO it is far from mint and worth much less than he is asking. As before I want one but am not willing to spend that kind of money. I can think of many other Lee Enfields I want in the thousand dollar range that are a better buy than that one.

Someone on Carolina Shooters Club forum has a nice Ishapore for sale for $350.
