    No 32 scope repairs.

    Just got my 1946 No32 MkIII scope back from Wheaty.

    Warren did a great job of freeing the turrets and replacing a spider web. He cleaned the scope, inside and out, without removing the brackets from the mount, thereby retaining the original punch marks on the screws.

    All is free and sharp, waiting for a trip to the range. I have to shoot this beast. It isn't unfired by any means and is in VG+ condition throughout. I've got to see if it will do the walk.

    The big thing will be if I'm up to the task.

    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.

    Good to hear this bearhunter, I just posted Wheaty's name to someone concerned about his 32. Nice to know that you can get a scope repaired here in Canadaicon, saves on postage and really eliminates alot of handling.

    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    Thanks for the recommendation, enfield303t. I am going to order Peter's No32 book, but in the meantime I'll look up Wheaty. Much appreciated!
