    As Issued Late Winchester Carbine

    Since the pics from last year, I have secured a correct mag, oiler, sling and Jeep scabbard. Just thought I'd share the Carbine with you fine folks.





    This was picked up from an eighty-eight year old Navy Veteran. He put twelve rounds through it to sight it in with his son in the 1960's, and put it back into the closet.

    Don't worry, he asked, and I paid a fair price. He's delighted that it is going to a collector.

    Now, the rest of the gun. Everything looks original and correct for a 6 million serial (Apr 1945). Barely needed a dusting. Plenty of pics, enjoy, and thanks for looking.

    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 remember that $40 yard sale scabbard you scored. What a great find.

    Thanks for the picture show, eye candy at Christmas time. I really like the stock a meaty grip and the flat bottom with sharp lines.
