**KenK** · 06-20-2009 03:22 PM

Recieved the rifle I had a octagon barrel installed on. Got it bedded in this morning. Wife ended up in the hospital so could only afford to have it installed. It is cold blued for now. Have'nt had time to shoot it yet as it will not guit raining here in Montana. Last picture is as it was before.

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.

Ken,

looks good near as I an tell from the picture. Might it be a little on the heavy side?

Some close-ups would be nice. Hope your wife gets better.

Ditto on the rain down here in SE Idaho. But it's supposed to break next week.

Will see if I can get better pics if the sun ever comes out. It is a bit heavy. Will shoot it tomorrow. Wife is better. Slight heart attack. Thanks for asking.
