    .22 MLM Mk1* conversion

    A few pics of my LSA MLM MK.1* commercial rifle converted to 22.
    The fore end fits the MLE profile barrel and handguard and has no cleaning rod groove so it is probably post 1899 replacement.
    I added the magazine after purchase just for appearance.
    I would be interested in what the CCC may stand for on the butt disc.

    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.

    CLRL is probably City of London Rifle League and the Domine dirige nos motto of the Corporation of the City of London and the dragon crest supports this. The barrel was retailed by Tippins of Manningtree.

    I'm Jealous, what a great looking rifle, coming originally from East London & in particular Old Ford Road, I collect Rifles by LSA

    Looks like the Conversion was by Tippins (Luke Ricketts Tippins) of Mistley, next to Manningtree on the river Stour in Essex

    Nice piece of history there, especially surrounding Mistley and Tippins.
