Does anyone know who supplied the Mukti Bahini with Mk4 Sterlings?

William A. S. Ouderland with a Mk4 Sterling.

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.

Likely the Indian army...

If they were smart, probably some of the 30,000 Sterlings supplied to India in the early 1960s.

I can't imagine it would have been anyone else besides India.

Look at the blokes right shoe. Looks like he's stood on an AP mine! Or has he shot his foot off during day 1 of his weapon handling class?

Trick of the light I think chaps, it looks more like he's got got dog poop over his shoe and the bayonet touting Stirling and spare mag show its not gone down too well..

**browningautorifle** · 08-18-2016 06:19 AM

But the bayonet still has the scabbard on and the mag stuck in his pants belt wouldn't last past the first few steps...I don't think he's done more than pick that up for the photo op.
