    Talking odd 1903 Springfields

    Attached are two Springfield model 1903 rifles. The un scoped rifle is an "Issued" 1903 A1. It is not a WW II re-build, very, very few were actually issued in a true A1 stock that has not been cut out for the A3 sight, It is marked with the SA/SPG cartuche and a single circle P. The other is a sniper reject N.M. rifle taken directly from the Un-Serviceable rack at an American proving facility. It has a G/H mounting system and a Zeiss drilling scope. I actually talked with the man that acquired the rifle as well as the man who mounted the scope system for the proving group.-SDH

    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.
