Well this is an "old post" which I guess means not too many
folks were interested - but it struck a chord here. I have
attained "something shootable" from all of the SMLE
Manufacturing plants - India, Canada, US, England, Australia,
with appropriate bayonets where I could afford them (can't
afford a "Jungle Carbine" original, so have a replica there
right now) in varying degrees of perfection. My first was US
$9.95 across the counter from Sears Roebuck circa 1959. (They
seem to cost more now...)
Is there any way /liklihood of ever getting a LONG Model Lee
Enfield? I have one of those rusted/broke Nepalise versions of
a Martini-Henry, and, a bayonet believed built for the Peabody
Martini of Providence Tool Company fame (maybe a rich uncle will
leave me a Peabody-Martini?).
Are Long model Lee Enfields ever available?
