~Make: BSA Lee Enfield
~Model: No.1 Mk.3* 1917 SMLE
~Caliber: .303 British
~Location: Chino Hills/Pomona. (SOCAL, IE)
~Price: was $500, now $450
~Will ship (Y/N): NO.
~Other info: Rifle, original canvas sling, original striper clip bandoleer full of vintage 1950's British production ammunition, extra pouch of more war-time ammunition on charging clips, one box of Hornady Custom 150gr SP, 2685fps rifle (16 rounds, shot 4 out of it), throw in a rifle sock.
Hate to sell my old Brit' but, she never leaves the safe, and rather use the money to fund something that will see more use. She is in great shape, shot her once at the range, fired 20 rounds of the brit surplus ammunition, followed up with 4 rounds of Horandy custom 150gr SP's, then religiously cleaned. grouped well at 250m
Barrel is immaculate, crown is perfect, over all rifle is in awesome shape. Must have been arsenally refinished some time in its life, because the condition of the bore amazes me, stock is solid, no cracks, splits, or holes, minor dents, and scratched but nothing major. Pretty sure most numbers match, I do know that the magazine does not match the gun. Bolt is smooth, over all just a solid rifle. Especially considering its damn near a century old, and was probably around to see WW1 along the western front.
pretty firm on price, I really hate to sell it, but if the right buyer comes along I will. wont split up the ammo from the gun. Take all, or take none.
Cannot post pictures on here, (not very computer smart)
But, I will snap a few shots upon request and sent them via text message.
PM if interested.

done with military camouflaged colors stenciled with palm leaves and dry grass from the back yard... I primed it all *****en, and it honestly has been pretty damn durable. & looks cool too. (kinda like the rifles in lone survivor type color & scheme.) 30 minutes with a rag & acetone would completely strip all the paint off and reveal the black underneath the paint.)
