Long Branch L42A1 Transit Chest

From my readings, any LB rifle chosen for conversion was especially accurate to start off with. No surprise the rifle was chosen for the L42A1 conversion program.

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.

Rifle and transit chest have been reunited and CES populated. Thanks to all that helped make both sides of the reunion possible!

Was thinking that myself........but must admit I doubt any pics for sometime will beat Promo's P14 with the No32 scope and his bracket he got made.

Brian, where did you go to Armorer school? I went to the I Corp one at Ft Lewis back in 1986. Also sadly cursed with **** poor vision. Only gotten worse since, lost my entire right visual field a little over a year ago.

Cold Zero, very nice rig!
