    First Post and Trapdoor, so SRS time!

    Morning all!

    Finally purchased my first Trapdoor Springfield (ser 471526), and time for the obligatory SRS request. And photos! Very happy with the purchase, great heat treating and condition (came across one gentleman mentioning that the mid 4xxxxx ranges had better condition because they were held back in favor of the "new" model rifles coming out). And sling, bayo, sheath, and repro frog.

    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.

    There is no listing for your serial number in any of the SRS books.
