My Winchester M1917

**Bear43** · 10-17-2014 09:55 PM

It's been a bit quiet so I figured I would share the M1917 I have in my collection. It has it's original barrel and mostly Winchester parts. The stock has been sanded at some point before I got it, but when I bought this it was at a bargain price so I overlooked that. It is pretty accurate. I get consistent 2.5" groups at 100 yards using commercial ammo.

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.

Beauty! Just aquired my 1st 1917. Winchester refurbished with a mix of parts . Looking around for the odd small bits marked W to replace the R & Es. These are fine sturdy weapons.

Hi, Bear43 and HoH. If either of you have a trigger guard marked "E", I have a "W" that I'd like to swap for an E. See Sarco photo for what I'm talking about.
