Hey all. I bit the bullet (no pun) last night and responded to an ad from someone looking for a rifle like mine. I got this SMLE October 31st for what I`d consider a fair price but I want to make sure I`m not getting gyppe`d. What would the masters consider a fair price for a rifle thusly described:
- 1916, Birmingham Small Arms - Mag Cutoff intact - No stacking swivel - 3/4 of the wood is Australian replacements, stamped 1942 - No cleaning kit - Bore exc, sharp lands and grooves with mild frost - Mag not original, possibly Ishapore 1922 - Round cocking knob - Stock disc intact, unmarked except a stylized A or F on the interior side - Butt plate screws mangled - Believed butt and plate WW1 original - SS# matching on bolt handle, receiver ring and chamber - Rear sight marked 78980 under a 7-pointed star. Very tight fit. - Receiver ring thoroughly coated in stamps and proof marks - Field strips without issue, have not fired it - Trigger breaks cleanly - No import mark I can detect - No volley sight  _________________ "To the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee! For hates sake I spit my last breath at thee! " Capt. Ahab I have never been, am not, and will NEVER be an NRA member. They sold me out a dozen times, just like they have you!
