What can you tell me about this .22 Enfield? And how comes the Volley Sights weren't cut off on a trainer?

Thanks,

Georg

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.

Looks like it may be a pre 1910 LSA commercial MkIII.
We need to see more photos of serial numbers & markings etc, plus a photo of the righthand side of the receiver showing the charger bridge.

Simon, does your No. 1 trainer also have the volley sights?

5thBatt, here are the pictures. Thanks in advance for your help.

Does the wood match the rest of the gun? It could have been restocked.. or else someone replaced the volley sights.

I've a similar .22 also with the volley sights intact. Until this thread came up, it was the only one I've encountered. Will get some photos for comparision when time permits.

(Something makes me think it's from Oz, but don't know why.???)

I have sent you a PM

Does your rifle have a solid barrel?

My one does not have volley sights

**Promo** · 06-16-2011 04:38 PM

Jup, solid barrel. Did recieve the PM, thanks. S/N on Bolt is not matching (with my rifle now), not sure about the stock but I think there's no S/N on it (shows plenty signs of usage).

I have a LSA Long Lee .22 trainer with volley sights and .303 magazine. The serial number has only three digits. I assume the volley sights were for practising fire control orders at the landscape series of targets. Mine is in mint condition.
