Here's a matched grouping you don't see everyday

[jhawes]

First a long branch No 4 t in its transit case

 

[jhawes]

Next the wrist of no 4 t showing 314-c

 

[jhawes]

Next, the scope in a tin

 

[jhawes]

Now the scope closeup... 314-c

 

[jhawes]

Next the snipers observers telescope

 

[jhawes]

Finally, the observers telescope number

 

[Evanguy]

Wow man. Nice!

 

[Lee Enfield]

nice combo

is the tin renumbered to the rifle/scope?

 

[Sharps '74]

Sniper rifle! Bad, bad, bad. Better dump it while you can ......

 

[bdft]

Might make a good moose rifle if you cut all that extra wood off and put a decent Bushnell scope on it.

 

[tacfoley]

Here in UK you are looking at CAN$12000, minimum....sigh........................................

 

[IvoB]

The Turd will give you $300.00 tax credit for it - that is a weapon of war designed to expire people ahead of their natural life cycle.

 

[Pblatzz]

Nice!

 

[jhawes]

Thanks. Tin not matched to scope . It is actually a brit one.

I do have a 71L and a 74L with a matching tin

Rather unusual to find a sniper observers scope with the number of the rifle/scope though

 

[Dantone05]

Whoa! Some awesome stuff right there !

That is amazing....I wonder, was that ever done when the rifles were issued? Or is that just an incredible coincidence?

 

[jhawes]

I suspect a coincidence as I have never heard of any other matching rifles/scopes with the observer telescope. When 314-c came up on ebay, made sure I got it
