    Drawings for rings (both high n low) mounts

    If anyone requires drawings for Lee Enfield N1 MKIII sniper rifles I have drawings for rings (both high n low) mounts, tooling to machine the receiver plus machining drawings.

    I took 4 months to collect parts and redraw them as the original ones floating around are incorrect live in QLD Australiaicon.

    Click on my name in profile and send me an email if you're interested.

    I'd also like ask if anyone knows where I can get reproduction scope covers for a Patten 1918 AOC scope 1944?

    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.

    Having a pair made would probably be outside my "comfortable" price bracket, but just out of interest, do the drawings show rings that mount centrally, or off to the left?

    I think the OP is referring to the WW2 Lithgowicon No1 Mk3* (H) T's, rather than WW1 SMLE snipers (but I might be wrong), so they'll be over bore mounts.

    Might I enquire which WW1 SMLE sniper mounts you had in mind - there are quite a few different types, which is part of what makes collecting them so interesting? I'm currently getting a quote for a small run of some more faithful reproduction PPCo mounts. I've done PPCo, Aldis/H&H, Aldis/Purdey, Aldis/Overbore claw mounts, Whitehead Brothers/Winchester A5, & No3 (T) mounts to date, although my machinists have worked by reverse angineering original specimens.

    Sorry, perhaps I misunderstood you - you referred to offset mounts being your next project. I assumed that you must be referring to one of the WW1 offset mount systems; my main area of interest.
