No need to deactivate as its never been a live gun (though the dart looks pretty tasty.īritish WW2 Swift training rifle, beautifully made folley: Kind of worked, except the soldiers shot each other in the ass with them and they had to be withdrawn! Those that survive have not been loved so this ones a delight, in rare working condition and original excellent condition. Idea was to drill recruits loads without the use of real ammo. The idea was kind of good - cycle the bolt to cock it the same as per a No4, then pull tight into the shoulder (sprung butt plate prevents the trigger firing if not in tight) and aim at a target half an inch away of the barrel, pull the trigger and a dart comes up and out of the end to pierce the target where you were aiming. Now here`s a real oddity of British WW2 design - a Swift Lee Enfield rifle. Interstate transfers to your dealer are no problem.British Lee Enfield Swift training rifle: These reproduction rifles are now being custom built in Australia as close to the original M40’s as possible with original scopes and are available in. The rifles were then rebuilt several times over the years to M40A1, A2 and now A3 specifications and many of the original Vietnam actions are still in use today by the US Marine Corp all around the world. These rifles were adopted in 1966 and used extensively in Vietnam.

Action pillar and glass bedded with Marine-Tex, barrel free floated. Reproduction US Marine Corps M40/M700 Vietnam Snipers Rifle in. The rifle is priced to reflect the spotty provenance, the use of replica components to restore and the fact that it may not be absolutely proven that it is a real sniper rifle, it is however an extremely good example, and would be perfect for a collector, shooter or reenactor. The trigger breaks at about 3lbs, and the working parts in the bolt, trigger mechanism and receiver have been cleaned and re-lubricated. The finish on the metalwork it very good to excellent, the woodwork is very good with only a few minor marks. The bore is mint, there is no pitting or throat erosion in the bore or on the bolt face. The rifle has not been refinished outside of the work conducted in 1944 by the Yugoslavs. The rifle has had reproduction low turret bases and rings fitted (removal of the plugs fitted by the Yugoslavs), along with a reproduction Zeiss Zielvier 4x scope, reproduction leather Zielvier scope covers, reproduction leather iron sights cover and reproduction web scope pouch. Most serial numbers have been scrubbed, however the bolt, receiver, stock and floor-plate have matching numbers, noting only the number on the floor-plate appears to have been re-struck. The rifle was re-marked with the Yugoslav communist crest and Preduzece 44. During refurbishment the bulk of German markings were scrubbed (although some waffenampts are still present and evidence of markings being removed is clear), further the original scope, low turret mounts and bases were removed and the holes plugged and overstamped. The rifle was captured by the Yugoslavs during their liberation in 1944, at which time, the rifle was refurbished as a ‘M98’, predecessor to the M47and M48 rifles.
This rifle started as a K98 Sniper Rifle in service with the German Army. Matching numbers, mint bore, excellent laminated stock. Fitted with leather sling, leather iron sights protector, scope pouch (for when detached), leather scope lense covers. Zeiss Zielvier 4x post and cross hair scope.
