My favorite gunshop has just got in three rifles on consignment. These were loaned by the owner to a local museum, where they've been on display for several decades. Now they're up for sale.
The rifles are:
1. 1898 Krag-Jorgensen infantry rifle, with bayonet, scabbard and sling.
2. 1903 Springfield, an early-serial-number Springfield Armory rifle with a later re-arsenaled barrel, with bayonet, scabbard and sling.
3. 1917 Enfield, Eddystone production, with bayonet, scabbard and (new-production) sling.
All three seem to be in very nice condition, with clean bores. Since they've been on display for lo these many years, they've seen very little shooting, I suspect. Prices are still being discussed, but will be reasonable (although not cheap, given the good condition of the rifles, and the fact that they're complete with extras).
If you're interested, contact Lee McNaughten at Red River Rarities, (318) 443-4405, between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., M-F.
Good luck!
