    No.4 mk1 (T) clone

    I can't believe I almost sold this rifle!

    I bought it as a sporter with no scope rings or a bolt.
    As luck would have it i found the matching bolt in a pile of bolts where I bought the rifle!
    I posted it for sale after figuring I'd never use it and almost sold it to an interested buyer. After 3-4 days of him tire kicking I decided to keep it and make a no4T clone out it.

    Found some used RALS3 rings and a nice K2.5 scope. Had the wood on hand already which ultimately is why i decided to keep it.

    And here we are.

    Rifle as purchased.







    Wood and metal loosely fit but you get the 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.

    Have you thought about rotating the scope 90 degrees so that he windage and elevation adjustments dials are aligned to that of a No.32 scope?

    The idea definitely crossed my mind!
    I'll give it a go next time I mount it after fitting the wood.
