    Latest Service Grade from the CMP

    HRA LEAD rebuild(Stickied for HRA). The rifle is the cleanest Service Grade I have ordered. The serial number is a 5.73 with a 2-56 HRA barrel, TE1.5, ME 2. It has a mixture of interesting parts like the W.R.A Trigger Guard. The stock was refinished and has the red triangle a P on the grip. The stock and hand guards match and so does the metal front to end. The safety is HRA, Follower Arm B8869 and the Buttplate HRA. All the rest of the parts are SA, WIN or IHC. It was really worth the wait and I couldn't be happier.

    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.

    they still are worth the wait. I just received 2 Springfield service grades a couple weeks back. I stickied for at least one HRA since I only have Springfields, but the odds were not in my favor this time. let us know how it shoots.

    LEAD Rebuilds

    They did nice work at Letterkenny. Mike Bernazzani wrote up the complete story with great photos in the Winter 2014 GCAicon Journal, it's worth hunting up to go with your rifle.

    This is my 3d one and they are all clones. They really did some great work then and still to this day. Letterkenny Army Depot repairs and modernizes Air and Missile Defense and precision fires systems. Just a step up from the M1icon Garand!
