1940 BSA.Co .303 SMLE SHT.LE III For Sale.
BSA.Co SMLE III 1940
Matching serial numbers on receiver/bolt/nose cap. Rifle was re proofed (possible new barrel 5 groove) in 1996 at the London Proof house. Excellent bore and a very accurate .303. Receiver also stamped crossed rifles with letters SA. We bought the rifle for Sue to use in 2000, so has not had much use over the years. Rifle bolt fitted with round cocking piece, mag cut off, windage adjustable rear sight, new foresight to correct the point of aim, stacking swivel, tan sling, WHB brass oil bottle and pull through stored under the brass butt plate, brass disc not stamped, excellent walnut wood almost unmarked.
Rifle does not get used much now, only used once this year so far 10 rounds fired, so it needs to find a new home.
Not seen another 1940 dated SMLE before.
£700
