Yet another faked No4 sniper

**AD-4NA** · Yesterday 05:41 PM

Well here is the latest:

"CANADIAN LONG BRANCH ENFIELD No4 Mk1* T SNIPER RIFLE"

https://www.gunbroker.com/item/959384597

I love the appeals to sources.
He is basically trolling the forum at this point.
This guy knows exactly what he is doing.
I see he has changed the titles on some of his other listings.

Now here comes the other hard-headed buyer phenomena: "All the other items they are selling are fake or reproduction, but the one thing I bought must be real and an exception if he says so!"

Too bad his name and reputation does not show up at the top of the search engine results.

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.

He's aware that is, that he's crooked.

Well here is a lark from left field!
I am just wondering if in the big scheme of things if Holland & Holland still had the patent rites to the Sniper T configuration and that if so then in copying that configuration and on selling it as a bona fife T infringes on that copyright. Not that H&H would worry about a small fry like this bloke.
Or are there no patent rites to the said configuration due to war time expediencies.....Just a thought!

I would like to cross post this one more time with an update in case anyone does not want to follow the other thread.

Fake T99 Sniper on GB | Gunboards Forums

Well usmctorch figured it out:
Wonder if he took the fall on purpose to leave bad feedback or found it out from the forums or something.

I see "Drak" on gunboards and "Draks" are one and the same despite some past denials, and that he had been up to the exact same behavior on gunbroker for over a decade. Add in some old potential stolen valor for a nice cherry on top.

Thread with the same seller from 2008:

Lots more info on his antics there. Seems many are aware of him. Apparently no bids on his stuff.
