    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.

    This is the 96 which is described as having features found on sniper rifles? I would suggest that it was set up for target shooting, and if it has not been fired too much could be an excellent shooter. The Swedes shot enough that barrels were used up, and rifles were rebarrelled. A careful inspection would be needed to try to assess bore wear. The rear sight will probably be attached with two screws, left and right. If we are discussing the same ad., there is little said about condition.

    If it's the rifle I'm thinking of, note that the correct tunnel sight is missing and the owner stuck a Mosin 91/30 sight on there. It should be a (rare) Carl Gustaf tunnel sight.
