    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 am the winner on this auction. The hammer price was $6000.00 USD. Including commissions and shipping, $7106.52. Not sure about SEAL team 6 but will defintely be used by me at the range.

    Check is in the mail. Will take possession in a couple of weeks.

    Rare Complete British Enfield L42 Sniper Rifle Rig with all Matching Scope, Scope Mount, Metal Scope Can and Wooden Storage Case

    All the best to the people down under.

    Good man! I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say I'd love to see a milsurps picture event on your new rifle when you get hold of it!

    I am the lucky winner of lot #629 - the piece is in immaculate condition with matching scope / base / rifle and appears near unused. The only flaw I can find are a machining ring on the muzzle end and a dent in the stock. I just wish it was complete with transit case and accessories.
