Went to my local gun shop this morning and they had gotten in a collection that included several US Property marked Remington 513s.
I picked out two of them to buy at $280 each out the door. One has a parkerized finish and is marked "military finish" and has an FJA inspection cartouche and LEAD marked in the stock. The other is a blued finish with these cartouches 
I understand the LEAD is Letterkenny Army Depot but what are the ones on the other one? How did I do price wise? They both are in pretty nice shape Is the "military finish" marked one more rare, unusual or valuable? Thanks |

Yeah but not recently as they haven't had them for a while.
It was an older guys collection and he had several of them, like 7 or so, and some 1903 Springfields, and Lee Enfields. Did the CMP ever do Enfields? |

I knew about the Eddystones but was just curious where he got a bunch of Lee Enfields with cosmoline on them still. I guess he just bought them back in the day when they were readily available.
I thought about picking up a Longbranch they had but don't really need one or want to get into 303 stuff though I do have an RIC carbine and a Jungle Carbine already. I didn't have enough cash on me yesterday so I'll probably pick them up today and post some pics of them. |
