    1903 rifle on eBay!

    And from a Russianicon Federation. If it isn't a scam, then some guy believes that such can be sold on eBay. Interesting.

    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.

    Ah Fred, one must translate before jumping off cliff....old wise saying. Here's a rough translation of his description;





    "MMG Springfield M1903 rifle of the firm Remington. Stuffed stigma and serial serial number , warranty of originality. Excellent condition - native burnishing and beautiful tree .
    In the trunk of the three holes and welded chamber , a pin in the middle of the trunk overlap completely.
    The famous rifle, adorn any collection. Included MMG rifle and stand."

    I'm still laughing at the colorful translation.

    And keep in mind, we can see Russiaicon from our porches.

    I don't know Fred, it has a nice trunk, some good parts and "from Russiaicon with Love"? If you look at his other offerings however, all bets are off.

    Look at the hole in the handguard, I believe it to be demilled.

    Yes, it is de-milled. He attempts to describe that in his description; "In the trunk of the three holes and welded chamber" I would wonder if the bolt is welded at the end as well?
