Ian McCollum’s vid here shows you what rifle it was mounted on.

You will need a WW1 pattern .303 SMLE rifle as described by Ian if you want the correct piece. These days at the militaria auctions they will run from $600 to $1200 ish depending on originality and bore condition.

Then you’ve got to find an original or repro scope mount and have it fitted to the rifle by someone competent (harder to find that person than you’d think). These scope mounts appear usually every 4-5th annual auction so they’re thin on the ground.

Cool scope though and worthy of the project, especially with the leather carrier too.
