    The SSAA Service Rifle handbook says it has to be "either an original or a faithfully reproduced model, with no enhancements compared to the standard pattern rifle" - which, as I understand it, means rebarrelled rifles are fine as long as it's the same barrel length as the original.
    For what it's worth, in my experience no-one is that worried about it at club or even state level; although each club is different so what's "Yeah, that's fine, looks like an old military rifle to me" at one club might not be considered OK at another.

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...
