96/11

**diopter** · 12-25-2011 09:29 PM

After many years, finally got one in anticipation of Swiss icon

Products Coming out in the near future with a non D/T left side scope mount and later on a diopter sight that will attach to the that same mount. Will work for 96/11, 1911 and K11.

Stock is a "bit" rough.

But barrel looks superb.

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.

The muzzle crown does indeed look excellent. And, just in case some readers have difficulty in reading the stamp on the butt, the rifle was in service in the St. Gallen district. Have you found any GP11 ammo?

Belong to a Swiss icon

Rifle Club. GP11 is not a problem for me.

How much snow is on the outdoor range might be the bigger issue.
At worst can take it to 50m indoor range with HP or SP reloads.

If you shoot it at 50 meters with GP11, you might find it advisable to tack on a second target below the first, and aim at that to be sure that the shots are on the paper!
