    Trainers

    Thought I'd post a picture of the few training rifles in my collection



    The top one come from Atlanta Cutlery and is probably part of the Nepalese haul. It is very well made of solid wood and lead weights to give it balance and is in the pattern of a No.1 Mark 3. I'm not sure if it was meant for bayonet practice as the nosecap fits a p1907 perfectly. Does anyone have any information on this trainer?

    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.

    Mine is marked [D broad arrow 1917] if that helps any. It is in VG + condition so I don't think it saw much use. Don't know its provenance.
