Will you also be bringing in some of the Indian surplus .303 that the Americans were getting last year?

Certainly, I completely agree -- prices have gone up, the market is different, and complete surplus rifles are no longer cheap (and neither is the ammo!) -- but stores in the USA are selling these same de-activated drill rifles from India for 150$ USD (after shipping) today. I understand that the market has always had a premium over the USA, but this is triple the price factoring in conversion. It just seems like a very high price point in a market where there are lots of people looking for parts for desporterization.
I used to go to Globe in the early 70s and buy directly off the rack from old Mr. English...Mint 1934 Oberndorf K94, Mint WWII Long Branch 303, Mint Ljungman AG42b, before they were readily available...passed on the Johnson semi-autos because they were "too expensive" at $200...
Sigh...
Still sticking with "no requests" available? I wouldn't be looking for specific dates or manufactures, just hoping to get one with the painted mag/stock and a big DP on the buttstock (since it's my initials )
Anyone doing any Long-Range, Pistol, or Action-Shooting in or around the Elk Valley/Crowsnest Pass? I'd love to tag along, send me a PM
I ordered two just to see what they look like!
Sorry! Can't make any promises on this one or we will have a mile long with requests.
"hoping to get one with the painted mag/stock and a big DP on the buttstock" throw that in the order comments with a "please and thanks" and our shipping department will do their best to make your dreams come true, if there is one near the top of the pile.
When in doubt order three!

What he meant was you can find #1 Mk3 drill rifles for around $125 to $150 in the states right now.
Since this year-old thread just received a bump, here's a video of me shooting the Cabin Fever Challenge with this rifle. I'd bought a sporter SMLE and a DP rifle both from Wolverine over a year ago and did a mini-restore to put them together this Winter. It was a fun project to do while it was cold and crappy outside
