    "Just to see what would happen?" Does this mean you really were not going to sell them? You just wanted to see if someone accepted your offer?"

    I asked $5k and would have sold them to anybody that was willing to pay rthe price.

    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 ...

    Sorry I missed your ad.

    If these are genuine "Red Stars" and if they are in good condition and as removed from the crates ( ie. with the red band intact and not tampered with in any way) I will pay you $5,000 for all three.

    I find it interesting that none of the self professed experts here have offered up and opinion as to the value of a Red Star 03.

    Here in Canadaicon, they would likely fetch $1500 or so (each). My opinion. A slight premium over the going rate for a really nice non-red star.

    I have two Red Stars and it would take at the very least $5,000.00 to get me to part with the pair.

    To anybody that is interested. The price you stated seems to be in line with the asking price. I have no connection to the seller, just saw the auction while searching the 03 sales on G.B.
