    As a reference to the "original Carbine" discussions recently, this early Underwood is one of those. On a Sunday well after noon I went to a local show to advise a friend which of 3 Carbines he should buy off a table. While we were looking at the 3, a guy behind us offered this Underwood for $1000. The original RMC stock had the oiler and sling cut filled, but everything else was original. The condition of the receiver, sight and bolt you can see shows it has almost no usage.
    In all the hours it sat there nobody had bought 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 wonder if people that have mediocre knowledge would be thinking it had been restored? Just gave it a pass?

    I can imagine. Maybe it was the stock that turned them off? I was only at the show a short time and didn't really talk to anyone about it other than the one guy.
