    CNo7 Mk1 evaluation.

    Hello all,

    I have been looking to purchase a Cno.7 and have a lead on one, and with the permission of the seller I am posting here for some opinions.

    After reading the fantastic post on them here it gives an approximate value of $1500 cad for a mint example with its chest, however I'm not sure if this rifle fits that catagory.

    It seems to be a nice "type 1" style marking early CNo.7, but the seller is wanting the high end of the approximate value. Numbers appear to match, bore is perfect, I dont believe it has the cleaning rods and jags. The magazine doesnt have the "22" stamp but it does have the feed ramp for the .22's, is this normal?















    Any input is greatly appreciated.

    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.

    Type one should be a 1944. I was not uncommon to see mag without "22" stamped on left side. It should be blued as opposed to parkerized. Serial number would confirm type one. Can you post a picture of receiver and bolt showing serial numbers. It will tell me if correct. Stock should be walnut. Sight should be marked "C1". Good ones are tough to find and $1500 is not out of line. Ron my email rgg_7@hotmail.com

    Just heard back and the serial is 0L439x, however there is no numbering on the back side of the bolt, just a "3" on the underside.

    Serial number confirms 1944 Type 1. Bolt would be numbered to receiver so I'd be suspicious. Any info on receiver finish? Ron

    The photos are in the first post and it appears to be blued.

    Thanks!

    Don't see pic's. If blued then it's correct. I'd still question unserialized bolt? Original lost, replaced from damage? Ron
