    Finally after 15 years....

    I have been looking for a clean 1903A4 for about 15 years now and have tracked down some very dissapointing rifles via rumours, whispers, and nudges at gun shows. The search finally paid off.

    1944 Remington 4 groove in really nice shape with a mint M-82 scope.
    Serial number is in the early second phase group after the M73/Weaver 330 scope but before the M-82's got diverted to the M1C's.

    Cheers Paul

    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 ...
