    Saginaw from Legacy Collectibles what do you think?

    Guys,

    Legacy Collectibles has a Saginaw currently for sell. I was wondering what you guys think. Looks nice, maybe too nice. Very limited description concerns me. Please see the below link.

    Your thoughts please.

    Thanks,

    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 ...

    Boxed SG and CC stamps are fake. Can't get my photobucket to work, but trust me on the stamps. Other pictures are just vague enough to show zero detail.

    Charlie,

    Thanks for your insight. The stock looks too perfect and maybe a little dark. The photos are poor to say the least. I do trust you on the stamps - could you elaborate without photos - I looked at Riesch and Harrison (I know about him) and really could not see what you already know.

    Thanks again.

    Actually I briefed thru all their carbines (except the troopers) and most all the Cartouches looked very iffy. Except that I cut WRA, that boxed WRA over GHD is legit along with the CC, I have 2 earlier versions in that serial range. I'm on the old laptop today, it won't let me pull pics from photo bucket, but I could at a later date if needed.

    That boxed SG and CC exactly match the repro (I prefer-Fake) stamps they were selling on Ebay years ago.
    The G has a too tall a profile above the cross - of the G. Much like the smaller versions that George uses on his fake flips.

    I'll try to find links in the carbine forum for pics after dinner.

    Little Later....
