    Model: SMLE No 1 Mk III* HT
    Action: Bolt repeater

    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Are you confident, CINDERS, that it's the "real deal"?

    I could go to Skennertons book and look it up but I am more interested in the forumers know the prices some of the people selling these HT's.
    As for the unfired bit of un-issued well I would like to know how they base that assumption did the armourer who last worked on it tell him that lot, we all would like an un-fired weapon of that era but as PL would say "Thats allot of faffing horse sh*te"

    Cinders,

    The usual price for the No 1 Mk III* HT sniper rig, from what I've noticed from Australianicon Arms Auctions is in the range AU$8,000 - AU$12,000. Usually the rifle comes with bayo, sling and telescope case at the upper end.

    Saw this one and felt like messaging the bloke that he was "...dreaming*..." for the price.
