    Possible Siamese Mannlicher 88/90?

    Hi all,

    I just saw this for sale at the linked site and was wondering if it was a Siamese M88/90 Mannlicher (not trying to advertise for anyone, just trying to see if I identified it correctly). I believe it is, however I am unsure as I have never seen any photos of one to compare it to. Well here is the link

    Reasons I believe it could be is the writing on the receiver and the weird symbol on the stock. Also the fact the Siamese contract consisted of unpaid Hungarianicon contract rifles which would also fit this description. I am not intending on buying it, just seeing if I identified it correctly. If you were thinking of buying it note the big crack in the stock with the brass rod to repair it.

    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.
