G'day if anyone's wanting to part with a fully wooded Lee Enfield I'm in the market.
Just lost out on what would've been my dream rifle on here not long ago so I'm in to win this time. Not too fussed about the exterior but would like it to be reasonably accurate and in a serviceable condition.
Cheers!
If you want to come to auck i see wills has one at the moment
Makes a change rather than asking for spot X for a first post. You have not been the only new comer asking the same thing.
The forum can rest assured that this person is someone I know personally and is one of integrity.
G'day Slug.. Noted.. I actually used to be a member here back in 2011 under another long forgotten name and must've forgotten my manners.. Thanks for not grilling me completely.
Except after 2100hrs on Fridays until at least 1800 Sunday ;-) thanks bro you're a legend among menQuote:

...and TradeMe, last one went for around $2700 six months or so ago., but if you want one as a collectable, don't unwrap it and shoot it's value away. You can always get an matching numbered sporter in good nick with no metalwork bubba and then find (new) old unissued wood to re-install (there's plenty around if you look and wait), that's if you want a shooter without shooting the history and value away on an "all original" perfect collectable.Quote:

Zero for 2 and the 100,3 & 4 were out. Pity because it grouped well but also had a wandering zero problem.
If you get let me I have a stabby for the end of it you could have.

The spanish Mauser is mine, I'm getting Will to sell it on behalf. The barrel is in bad nic, but i figured someone would want it for re-enacting or buy it for parts. I'm not saying it doesn't shoot but its not great.Quote:
