    22lr enfield trainer sighting local

    Not sure if it should go here or in small bore or even classifieds, but...

    Looked like a mk3 in gorgeous shape! Spotted at Rogers Arkansas Cabelas.

    They also had a very strange looking "Jungle Carbine". Looked like a JC barrel grafted into a 1918 mk3 action. Rear sight looked fitted into stripper clip slot. No pics of 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.  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 ...

    Get a closer look at the mk3 and see if it's a Lithgowicon

    I suspect the "jungle carbine" will be a Golden State Arms item.

    If the .22 is legit, why didn't you buy it?
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?
