    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 ...

    Nice rig but a bit pricey for a mis- match, IMO. It's possible to find an L42 for that money, in fact one sold on gunbroker a couple weeks ago for $5500. If that's the rifle that belongs in that chest it one of the ''scopeless'' T's that was never finished by having a scope and bracket fitted and won't have the T on the side wall. It would need to take a trip to Brian Dickicon to have the bracket fitted correctly to really be right as a shooter.

    Thanks. I recall seeing quite a few of them sold without the scopes years ago. Seems like Springfield Sporters had them????

    Imported by Hercules Surplus Limited in Toronto in the 1960's. I knew the old boys, (brothers), that owned that place. A beauty.

    Yep, an honest mis-match, but certainly the real thing IMHO.

    It's a nice rifle but I doubt it will sell at that price. The L42 on GB has a lot more going for it and it didn't sell at $6,000. He dropped the price down to $5,600 an it's still not selling.
    Here it the states people aren't shelling out the big bucks like they were in the past.
