    Another project inbound - 1912 Mk III

    Just won a 1912 RSAF Enfield No 1 Mk III in an auction. No wood on it, and no bolt (I have a correct one, though) but it does have the proper windage adjustable rear sight, magazine cutoff is in place, and the sear and magazine release are still on it. Got it for a grand total of $47 to my door. What can I say, I'm a sucker for project rifles and this one will be right at home with my partially complete and continually in progress 1906 BSA/Sparkbrook Mk I***.

    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.

    Just the adventure of hunting parts and putting it together makes it worth saving. I hate seeing those neglected barreled receivers that have life left in them. And for that price it really was an easy choice.
