    Lightbulb 1942 No.4 Mk1*(T) Savage Sniper Rifle (less scope)



    With thanks to Advisory Panelicon member Lance, we've added a new entry to the England - Milsurp Knowledge Library (click here)

    A rare "all correct" 1942 No.4 Mk1*(T) Savage Sniper Rifle (less scope) (click here) .....

    Lance's article, accompanied by a detailed 165 pic photo montage, speaks to this example as being one of approximately 3,400 rifles converted by Holland and Holland and re-barreled with an Enfield 5 groove barrel, however, it was never fitted with a matching No.32 scope.

    There are also several entries with pics noted in the "Collector's Feedback and Comments" section of the main Knowledge Library entry, including a discussion with photo montage by "terrylee" on what made up the contents of a No.4(T) sniper kit, a discussion how to spot a fake No.4(T), identifying Weedon repair markings (with pics) on a No.4(T) and finally, a discussion surrounding the correctness of various types of sling swivels observed on No.4(T) rifles.

    Regards,
    Badger

    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.

    A very nice rifle indeed. 13C is the same serial block as my infantry issue '42 Savage.

    With thanks to Advisory Panelicon Member, Brian Dickicon of BDLicon Ltd., we've added Note #3 to the "Collectors Comments and Feedback Section" for this MKLicon entry. It contains a small photo montage of his very early 1941 No.4 Mk1(T) Savage Sniper Rifle (less scope) serial #0C160. Beautiful looking rifle in great conidtion. You can see what great care Brian takes in looking after it.

    Regards,
    Badger
