Hi Michael, this was a very informative video. I was wondering if you might consider doing another version with a newer camera so we can read the stampings and see the detail that newer phones these days capture. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and collection of SMLE rifles. One of my Lee Enfields is marked as a Lithgow 1942 MK11* when it is clearly in MK111* configuration. Have you heard of this before? Thanks mate.

Absolutely amazing. Can’t believe I haven’t come across your video before. Thanks so much .

How do you find 2207 with 38 Special? Is there much unburnt powder?

Interestingly, the only rifles actually marked SMLE on the action body were Lithgows produced after the designation was changed from Sht LE to Rifle No 1 Mk III. The rifles, then, bare a designation which wasn't the official "name" of rifle.

Mine was stamped E.R. ENFIELD 1907 Sht.L.E III with Mk III * parts and H MOTTY -> S <- 57 48 4'34 on the receiver. Accurate and great condition but long gone sadly. Probably worth a bit more than the few dollars I paid for it in the mid 70's.

Missing the the actual first Lee auction which was the 1876 Remington Lee was chambered for the 45-70 which was basically the same as Lee metford

Nice

Hi, congratulations, do you know how to answer, the difference between the lee classic 90496 press (it seems to be yours) and the 90064?

Thanks mate

Great to hear history of the Lithgow rifles and delighted that the re established museum is finished. My father worked at the factory as a leading hand toolmaker throughout the war and it shaped his working life thereafter. His skills developed at Lithgow were passed down to me and sustained me through a long career. The story of Lithgow small arms is quite unique and an important part of Australian history. Well done Michael King!

Why do you need a scoop?. We use Diopter😊

need a but stock and bolt 54 RIF

I have been lookin for one to shoot WWII matches in America. I'm a ffl dealer

It shoots better as it has a thicker barrel !

excellent

Wow!

Impressive shooting with a smile ❤

So much concentration and joy. Fun to watch. Thanks for sharing☺️

These are just plain great shooting rifles. Great accuracy,with the correct hand loads. And the right person behind the trigger. I enjoy shooting my Sweds. Even the AG42b is a great shooter.

Looks like you are shooting a right handed bow and you pulling with your left arm. Looks strange. However, if it works for you, so be it.

My 1917 III*(not a Lithgow but Enfield) nose cap is not bored through for a stacking swivel?

Kitne ke hai

how much did it sell for

Some beautiful rifles, just need to put them slings on the correct way.

Had a 50# Savannah Stealth. My 31 draw made it 58. At 73 it’s become too much for me, but, like the Ausable, those rd longbows are the best looking, quietest shooting, and easiest carrying.

I suspect that the 1943 examples rear sight wings are the wrong way around. I would like to know more about the opening up of the front sight protector.

Perth?! where the Hell is that, what like Nevada or something?! Man that bow is quiet! And the velocity of that arrow!

great video im into Australian ww1 re-enactment i use a reproduction Lee Enfield made by Dennix they are a spanish company, it appears from your clip that they have modeled there rifle from your last rifle 1918, the reproduction does take an original 10 round magazine you can cock and dry fire also with some modification you can fit an original bayonet!

I have a 1942/3..Matching #'s. I would like more. info on this gun..norrisgillen@outreach.com. Thanks, Norris

I just ordered a Traditions Kentucky Pistol in 50 caliber. Mines a kit and I'll be putting it together. Can't wait !

1:31 From my experience you always had to push the around into the magazine not slide it into the chamber like you did there its always eventually damaged the rifle because when it loads the brass ring on the ass of the casing acts as a slide and the bolt it's self holds the bullet like teeth this is forcing the bolt......at least from what my old man told me and the click noise just sounds like something isn't right lol

thot's e noyce snoppa raffoo.

Does anyone know what the little loop in front of the magazine is for??

Do all Lithgow Enfields had the thick barell?

Just picked up one of these, a 1917 or 18 as best as I can tell. Shots well. Thanks for the information.

I have a 1953 Lithgow No.1 Mk3 in .303 British. It is one of the last 1,000 rifles made. It shoots great!

That car, in my opinion, is spoiled whit all those modifications, unbecoming of a REAL CLASSIC car. What a pity.!!! And those numbers on the doors.?!?! Yagggh.!!!!!! A Classic Luxury Saloon, spoiled.!!! I can agree with some modifications to the engine and /or suspension, NEVER in the interior or body looks.!! (Starting with that ugly, not original steering wheel)!! AND "Bucket seats in a Classic Saloon.??? JEEEZZZZ.!!!!!! I own a 1960, Mk. 2, 3.8 Lt Jaguar, BUT mine IS IN ORIGINAL FACTORY CONDITION.!!! NO modifications allowed.!!! " CLASSIC CARS, NOTHING LIKE THE REAL THING ".!!!

Great car looks amazing. Thumbs up.

wot bhp is it

Nice shooting. Always wanted to see what a scoped M96 would do. Thought they banned guns in AUS?

A well done demonstration. Short and right to the point on how to load a Muzzleloading pistol. Nice range and accessories. Keep up the good work!

gotta love those vowels.

The sad thing is in Australia those still require license in the United States they are not even considered weapons why can't Australia be more like America

Fantastic video hubby and l collect 303 rifles in a small way, hope to see more

Great rifle a classic I think the ammunition may not be proper one just by looking at your groups or maybe condition of your barrel, great rifle really a treat to see this weapons ty.vm.

wtf mate, all of Australia and only 100 m

cheers from phx az usa

What ammo are you using?

I have a Lithgow Rifle No. 1 Mk. III* made in 1941/42 that has always been a fun rifle to shoot. It came from a lot that was supposedly found in a warehouse in the late 1980's and imported into the USA in the early 1990's. I know mine had a lot of cosmoline still in it and I had to pay a gunsmith to clean it.
