    WRA On GB

    Think this stock came on this Carbine from CMPicon?

    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.

    What a nice "new" cartouche. The last few years it has become a buyer beware situation for most auctions. To the point of almost only buying from someone you know.

    Its at $1075.00 with 4 minutes left.
    Current High Bidder has 1 GB transaction.
    Not a bad looking WRA, but that stock and the paperwork make it mis leading.

    Oh come on now, that beautiful walnut stained birch stock is nicer than the stock on a Ruger 10/22.

    Who is JACKTHEDOG?

    He's got a Saginaw S'G' up for bid at GunAuction that's reached $3,180 with 12 days to go.

    Looks nice but that nice? Be interested what the experts think, it's good for my education.

    Thanks

    I don't know who JTD is, but I have a hunch he's from Southern, OR. At least he shows a picture of himself! I have a slightly later S'G' 1,829,xxx that is nearly identical to this one with the exception that mine has the oval cut stock. Nearly every other part on mine has the same markings as his, but my rear sight is different. S'G' assembled the rear sights using various components. My front band is U rather than UI and I don't see any bands integrated from Inland listed on that page in WB, but since GM owned both Inland and Saginaw it's probably OK - my sling swivel is the same. I can't see the maker mark on the front sight, but I can tell by other features that it's correct. This auction as well as the excellent pictures are in my opinion a good study on a very original appearing S'G' carbine. If I had that kind of money to spend, I would bid on it before I would on a lot of other auctions that have been studied here. If we get into more detail on this one, I have a lot of fairly good pictures of my parts for comparison. Is it worth that kind of money? I think so. - Bob
