    1903 10-43 Sedgley barrel

    I have a Sedgley barrel that was military packed in 4-67. The barrel is dated 10-43 and appears brand new. Mine also has the sight base installed. Anyone have experience with barrels packed/repacked in 1967? Are they legitimate?
    Thanks

    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 would guess if the package that contains the barrel is marked with the appropriate markings, it is legitimate and not one that was bent and then restraightened. "Normal" ones are supposed to be good-shooting barrels.
