    the only issue i have with the A4 Gibbs POS. is that they dont say thay are in fact recovered drill rifles, and that the parts they use are junk, plain and simple.
    the scope bases dont fit right, bolts are rough, and the handles come off, scopes are cheesy at best.
    when i asked them staright up, if they were made from drill rifles, they said hmmm, im not sure, ill ask...then she answered no...they arent...ok...THEY ARE, just say what they are.
    Dont BS people...
    i have no problem with a nicely done receovered drill rifle, only a problem with them being sold as a regular rifle.

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I have had Chuck do smithing work for me. I trust him to do it right. I am sure he will. Way to go, Chuck! Keep saving those pieces. Not all of us have deep pockets.
