    MG08 help required

    Hi all

    I posted this in the new member post but I will post again here.

    I am a new member and have never been much of a militaria guy, however I have recently acquired an MG08 and I must admit the cool factor is overwhelming. It will need a little TLC but the basics are mostly all there I think. I am hoping to bring it back fairly close to complete and original. I am hoping that some of you will be available to guide me in my quest.

    I need to acquire some bits or fabricate from really good pictures. If anyone can help please email me at

    thx in advance and i look forward to engaging with you most knowledgable enthusiasts.

    cheers Sean

    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.

    The search function will allow you to find others with the same interest, top right hand corner. They are on the forum and will probably arrive soon.

    There are regular postings of the MG08 and MG08/15.

    If you place a WTB in the forum for that you may get all you can handle.
