    Words fail me

    7.62 Lee Enfield No 4 magazine - SSAA Gun Sales

    If the link doesn't work - see below for sellers description and the price!!!

    7.62 Lee Enfield No 4 Magazine
    $1,000.00
    MAKE:LEE ENFIELD
    MODEL:NO 4

    Words fail me, but as has been said before things are worth what someone is willing to pay for them, but i think in this case, the old "tell im hes dreamin" applies.
    Makes my recent acquisition of 7.62 convert with CR141A65 stamped mag for $450 seem ok, especially since it now shoots sub MOA after i repaired the draws

    A mistake surely?? I had a spare example a few years back and couldn't give it away .. swapped it for three really good SMLE mags in the end.

    Saw two No 4's at the last gunshow, well I saw a Few No 4's but one was priced at $1200 Can. and the other was $1500.

    Nowt to set them apart from the others on tables. nothing startling about them. Just some greedy sod I think, looking for a sucker.

    $1000 about double the going rate in Australiaicon I think. Might be OK if there was a rifle attached to it.

    Expensive, particularly when there are at least two viable "non-No 4" alternatives much cheaper.

    Not likely a mistake. I think we all go back and look at our own listings at least 5-10 times over during the process.
