    Importing actions to australia

    Hi peeps.

    I have recently acquired a mint condition m1917 ( i think) stock complete with front volley sight and all the hardware, only thing missing is a barrel and an action. I assume its an eddystone build (theres a single capital E on the volley sight)

    Do any of you guys stateside know of any dealers who will sell to overseas, or has this been placed in the over legislated too hard basket?

    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.

    Can't help you with any of the export business but if your stock has the volley sight i'd say it's a P-14 and not a 1917.

    I believe Brian Dickicon is able to help out. I have never used him before so can't comment other than that.
    The paperwork and so on is the same as a complete rifle. Your other option is to wait for someone that has sporterised their P14 and is selling it cheap in Aus.

    Seen plenty of sporterised P14's, but they have all had their ears milled off.
