    New acquisitions

    Having given up four quarry rifles and put in for four variations, to add four additional target rifles, this is what I have just acquired, picked up the last of the four this morning:

    New toys from the top:

    1955 Fazakerley No 4 Mk II .303 (I repatriated this from Germanyicon, which was an easy process).

    1969 Enfield Envoy 7.62

    1950 BSA No 8 .22 LR Cadet rifle

    GSG STG 44 .22 LR semi auto


    Ok, sorry about the STG 44 in an Enfield thread!


    Attachment 92772




    And they will keep these Enfields already in the cabinet company:


    1944 BSA 4(T) sniper rifle

    1960 BSA L1A1 SLR straight pull (Anglo Custom Rifle)

    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. Brian Dick ...

    I've got one of the GSG MP44's as well. It's really great fun to shoot & very well made (mind you, made in Germanyicon)!

    I'm looking forward to shooting them all!


    You'll probably not recognise it Roger, but the 4(T) has been through your hands.........

    It's a surprisingly small world, that of WW1 & WW2 sniper rifle collectors!

    I'm not sure if that indicates we are exclusive and discerning, or just plain sad!

    Nice.

    I have a GSG StG.44 in my cabinet as well to keep my two Lee-Enfield's company -
    Don't get to shoot the StG.44 much though as every time I take it to the club, every other bugger there wants a go of it

    I wonder if my 4T has been though anyone else's hands on here?
