    Auction Watch, Opions Wanted

    Guys,

    What do you guys think about the three below Carbines now listed on Gun Brokers. Original? Correct? Put to Gathers? Price too high? Shooter or Collectable? All options encouraged, still trying to learn as much as possible. Still doing a lot of reading.

    You've saved me from making mistakes before, your thoughts

    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 ...

    I like the second inland you have posted, my guess is that it will go way higher than the $1600 it's at now

    I agee. If I had to pick one out of the bunch, it would be that one. There could be a couple questions on it, but seems like there always are. - Bob

    A lot of guys get hung up on wanting the name Winchester. I think that is the worst of the group.

    In my opinion, even with the sanded stock and rust on the barrel by the marking, the 6 digit Inland is the winner of those three.

    The Winchester appears to have a stake mark on the rear sight dovetail suggesting that the T II or III was replaced with a T I.

    I like the Inland with the 6 digit SN.
