    Welbike info sought

    Any "Welbike" / Indian Papoose owners out there?

    My brother, the family motorbike buff, (2 Vincents, BSA Gold Star, '26 Harley Peashooter, ex-works BMW "outfit" etc.) scored one of these dinky critters a while back.

    We have found a bit of stuff on the net so far, but any "personal" experience with restoring them could be handy.

    Thanks in advance,
    Bruce

    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 ...

    Bruce,
    Go onto ParaData | A living history of the Parachute Regiment and Airborne Forces which is the all knowing site for The Parachute Regiment and Airborne Forces there you will find the answer. Type in Welbike in the search box top right.
