Also note that the same seller has a complete selection from any maker. All the sights have the same looking finish but with different maker stamps. BIG tipoff. Salt Flat

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.

LT-Q REPRO...... Nope gotta say FAKE, because the Seller States:

"This is a WW2 USGI original Quality Hardware & Machine Company QHMC, Type II Dogleg Hammer - not a copy or a fake!"
"All parts are 100% guarateed to be as stated, or your money back."

Question: How do you prove to a seller that the part you bought is FAKE?
So you can return for refund.

I love the absolutely horrible photos on some of these auctions! Really?

I probably wouldn't bid on this hammer simply because of the lack of views and poor photo quality. However, maybe it's just me but I don't see any obvious deal breaker in the pics provided. I'm not asking for any explanations but there appears to be some good features on this hammer (as best as I can see). Maybe the humpers have now exceeded my limited expertise. ChipS

Chip,
Compare the LT-Q markings on his real Dogleg. The real one (#2) has clear pics, the FAKE has the Blurry pics.

I think I figuared it out. To make a big sale on a bad part you must use bad pictures.
