Hello,

I'm new to the forum so hopefully I'm posting this in the right place (searched the gun manufacturer and some of the posts were here).

My father recently inherited a few Lee Enfield 303s and isn't sure what to do with them:

- LE VR Sparkbrook 1897 LE1

- GR BSAC 1918 Sht LE III

- B 1942 SHT LE III

Any idea what these are worth?

Could you define sporterized?

Is there a rating system for the bores (assuming this is the grooves or what’s remaining of the grooves within the barrel?

I’ll find out about the wood.
 
Sporterized means the forestock and/or the barrel has been shortened. If the forestock has been cut on the last two then they are worth about 200.00 apiece. If they are full wood then 200-600.00 but we need half a dozen pictures of the complete gun to give you a decent estimate. I sold a Sparkbrook not too long ago very similar to that one for 200.00 also.
 
Rifle 1: barrel length was 30.2"; Rifles 2 & 3: 25.2".
Forestocks should extend almost to the muzzles, and there should be provision for bayonet mounting.
 
Hi
If all the rifles are cut down from full military wood stocks and look similar to the sparbrook then 150-200 each. At least from what I see on the EE and at gun shows. People try for more but they always seem to come back to those prices. Also those prices are conditional on mags being there, bolts, shootable rifling and the guns work.
