    1918 SMLE .22

    I recently picked up a very nice 1918 SMLE .22 trainer. It is an SSA peddled scheme rifle that has been rebarrelled in .22
    I have not been able to work out the butt disc markings. If anyone can help on that; I would appreciate it.

    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 ...

    This rifle also has a steel butt plate with a gunmetal trap for the oil bottle. According to Skennertonicon these were by Linley & Co as part of the peddled scheme
