    .22lr Enfield Trainer Magazines including Hiscock Parker

    I need to raise some funds for another rifle that I have my eyes on and am thinking of selling some of the items that I do not use. I have a Hiscock Parker magazine, a (I think) No. 7 magazine and a standard "gutted" magazine.
    I would prefer to sell them as a job lot but have no idea what they would be worth together or if it would be better to list them separately. Any help would be great!
    Many 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 ...

    The H&P magazine is the one with the big pice tag, I'd say around £800-1000, I had mine for sale some time back but had no takers, kept it in the end. The gutted one you say looks like its got the loading plat form for a No9 ?

    As for the No7 one I've no idea, but I'd put the H&P mag on ebay to test the water, they are sort after, either put a reserve on or offer a buy it now with a best offer. You'll get more response if you will ship world wide.

    Yes sorry I wasn't very clear with the description. The gutted mag has a sprung loaded feed ramp and then allows the empty to fall into the mag casing. I believe something similar was used both in the no7 and the no9.
    The No.7 mag has the 5 shot detachable BSA Sportsman mag. I can not find any trace of the for sale online to give me an indication of what they are worth.
    I was thinking £1200 for the lot (900 for the H&P, 200 for the no7 and 100 for the single shot) but this could be well off the mark.

    The H&P you could probably could get £1200 at a push maybe even more? I haven't seen one for a long time for sale and as they say, they don't make them anymore, as for the other two I couldn't say, but for someone who is looking for one or the other then they wouldn't want all three. Test the water with ebay and stick a reserve on.

    I will try but ebay uk does not allow the sale of any part of firearms (including magazines) other than stocks. I'll try listing it as an antique but they will probably remove it right away.

    Well I cannot find any more price info anywhere on the Web so I think I'll just try putting an add in the WTS section. Thanks for your input bigduke6.
