SMLE No. 1 MKIII*

    Mint rifle. ALL matching numbers. Included in sale is also the original brass oil bottle which is also number to the rifle. Also included is the original non- windage adjustable rear sight, and a windage adjustable one, reproduction sling and stripper clips.

    Original Enfield 5 groove barrel. Bore is mint and not worn.
    Enfield factory, 1918 FTR.
    1944 reissue mark.

    The original stock was split, so, as timber was considered a consumable item when the rifles were in service I had it restocked by CG firearms in with brand new furniture which has been been fully numbered & marked to match the the timber that was previously on it. I have lovingly maintained the timber with cold pressed raw linseed oil exactly as per 102 years ago when it was built. This means that the colour will darken and redden over time.

    This rifle is special. Equally at home on the range as hanging on the wall.

    Can be viewed in Kerry or Dublin.
    I'll post more photos when I can.

    E1350.....

    More photos..... Please note, I've also decided to Include this superb reproduction bayonet with frog which fits on the rifle.... The quality of this SMLE has to be seen to be believed.

    No reasonable offer refused. Great opportunity to own a mint example before I renew licence and keep it
