    My new type 38 purchase

    Hey everyone. I picked this type 38 up over the weekend and I wanted to share it with all of you. It is a Series 22 Kokura and from what I could find after taking the rifle apart all matching to either the serial number or the assembly number. It also has the bonus of the mum present and unmolested with. It's only real downside is that the finish has worn away over time but is still present in a few places. The seller had it for $400 but after I looked it over he talked himself down to $350 and the rifle was mine. Hope you guys like it as much as I do.

    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.

    Finish looks fine in the photos. Hard to find with the Mum these days.
