    Picked up an A4

    I purchased this A4 recently and should receive it in a few days. I will post more pictures when it gets here. I believe the sn is 3415537 but it is hard to tell from the photo.When I spoke to the owner he said that the M73b1 on the scope was new and he still had the box for it that it was shipped in!! I am not sure if the leather lens caps are real or repro's, maybe you guys can help me with that when I get more pictures. Looks to be pretty original although the pictures are not that great. Let me know what you think.

    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.

    When you get it loosen the rings and rotate tthe scope 90 degrees counterclockwise. Otherwise looks very nice. Please post any info on the markings when available.

    Regards,
