Rifle, Short, Magazine, Lee Enfield

June 2012

SMLE the first

SMLE the first was given to me by a friend when he emigrated to the USA more than a decade ago. To date I have not come up with a good enough justification for getting a licence.

It's a Number 1 Mark III, I think, serial number 14967.

SMLE the second

I rescued this one from the great Firearms Act deadline of June 2009.

It's a Number 4 Mark I*, made by Savage in 1942.
