    What was in the pictures No.4 Mk1(T) chests

    I first showed pictures of the sniper chests as a comment on storage problems. Even with the loss of my computer data base, I am pretty sure there are rifles for all the boxes in storage and never intended to imply otherwise.

    Continuing the storage issues, shown are most of the rifles from the chests. The curse extends to them also.

    As Jona says, nothing is for sale or trade and no, I don't have your missing numbered widget.

    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.

    .....

    Very nice ...

    We just had a similar rack type storage system built to hold our collections. Unfortunately, after my wife got their first filled them all up with her pieces. It now looks like yours with one large wall of Enfields and my K98kicon's are still relegated to the floor.

    Her answer was ... so what? My answer was ...

    Seriously, are you attempting to arm a small African nation? Does anyone REALLY need that many Enfields (well, the answer is obviously yes....). And to think my dream would be just to own ONE No.4(T), box or no box...

    Lastly, next time you have a yard sale, please let me know

    Nice racks full

    What this shows more than anything, is prescience of what to buy before the unwashed masses "discover" "it". I like the method of display-the rifle density per square foot is higher than my method. I've got to change mine!!
    Thanks for sharing!
