Thanks to Doug, (administrator) I'm back on line. Was not my intention to seek an evaluation of it but wouldn't mind if someone did. Here are the photos

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.

Nice, I have only seen and held one it belonged to John Sukey and that was several years ago.

A MkIII scope seems to have snuck into the photos (in addition to the MkII scope)

Ha ha, sneaky little bugger isn't it. That scope belongs to my all complete matching 1944 kit, scope, case, chest etc. Both photos of the case are of the same pouch just the front and back, Ray

Just for info I had the rifle listed incorrectly on Surmil's Trials rifles chart thinking the heading was asking if the scope was matching, and I marked it no. However after recently rereading the chart, I see it meant if the rifle was matching and should have said yes. Ray

Not an easy rifle to find in unaltered condition. Missing cutoff and sanded wood hurt value. Nice rig.
