    New Gun show 1903 Cool stuff!

    A buddy of mine turned me on to this 1903 Springfield. Its in the 1.4 million range and has a barrel date of 1932. Nice pre WW2 C stock. All original metal finish. The best part are the P.J.O'Hare pieces it came with. Has the rear sight shield, muzzle guard and sight micrometer tool. Also has a nice old Hathcock leather sniper sling on it. Definitely was someones shooter for a long time.

    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.

    Is this a National Match rifle?

    Other than the sight covers, it doesn't appear to have any of the features seen in a NM rifle. Of course, some more information would be welcome:

    --Is there a Star Gauge mark on the muzzle crown?

    --Markings on the stock?

    --Polished raceways and follower (again, from the picture, it doesn't look so)

    No it doesnt have a star-gauged barrel. No markings on the stock. Most likely it is a D.C.M. standard model with "C" stock rifle. Im going to have the serial researched to find out.

    P.J. Ohare

    Does anybody know how rare and what these P.J. Ohare accessories go for? I've never seen them before.
