    Enfield Sniper

    Just came across what appears to be an unissued Enfield Sniper in the shipping grate with all of the original equipment still inside. The rifle appears unfired or close to it the scope and case look brand new. Any ideas on a value I have zero idea?

    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.

    Well I would be the first one there armed with the relevant information on them models type and so on and have a good look at it to ensure it is a bon fide one many persons have been suckered with fakers not saying this is but if it is true then be prepared to pay a tidy sum for it

    Or be a very lucky guy, and find the Pawn shop or whoever has it, doesn't know its true value

    It's on hold for me, I did check the scope and rifle serial numbers do match so I guess that is a good start.
