    Webley MKIV 38/200 Israeli contract

    According to Webley records it was made in 1967. They made these till the last year of production in 1968. They were stamped with the Star of David and 4 ton proof mark. Chambered in 38/200. This is a 4" barrel. I have shot it and so has the wife. She likes it and keeps it on her night stand. It reminds her of Indiana Jones in the temple of doom.

    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.

    They're a bit wimpy, but nice enough. I enjoy shooting my MkVI much more.
