Pretty expensive but with something like Martini Henry it'll start paying for itself within 70 or so rounds. So total you are looking at $330 startup costs and that is without going into powder and primers, lead you could find if you look around. 45 but it isn't very accurate apparently without doing some weird things with heeled bullets and the suchĬases as were mentioned are available at for about $45 for a box of 25. Speaking of ebay there are chamber adapters that shoot.

You need one that can accept the Large Series dies which are 1 1/4-12 threading while the standard Lee size is 7/8-14 which the budget ones are solely designed for.Ĭan't seem to find bullets but moulds are about $80-90 (cheapest being on ebay but without handles) and you pretty much need it for bullets or it'll be about a dollar for them alone. It's important to note the cheaper presses aren't going to work unfortunately. Maybe look again, RJay.Not him but a basic Lee press costs about $120 and the dies are about $80-90 (cheapest I could find was here but going to ebay might be cheaper because of shipping). Albans, Vermont) on the right side of the barrel between the bayonet lug and the muzzle. 4 (PF 332515) and after scrubbing at the cosmoline, I found the import stamp ".303 UK/CAI ST ALB VT" (Century Arms International, St. 45 pistol it is called theft.)įWIW, after reading RJay's post, I checked my "mummy wrap" No. (Yes, I know your grandfather brought back his. 4 "vet bringbacks" US and British forces did not merge and swap weapons, and bringing back US or Allied weapons was prohibited. Pre-68, US made guns required no import marking, as the COO was the US.īut there were no SMLE or No. The people doing the marking were not gun experts, so it is not surprising that there were errors (I have seen a Savage-made No.4 marked "ENGLAND") or that some were missed. In one importer's bonded warehouse that I was in, hundreds of guns were scattered all over the floor, and people with stamps went around marking them, then they were replaced with more. Those guns were brought in literally by the ton and the markings (either the COO or the post-68 import mark) were put on in bond in the US, not in the foreign country. That import mark is just part of the history of the gun. True, some collectors won't accept any gun with an import stamp, but at the same time will be overjoyed by a plethora of proof marks, property marks, inspection stamps, etc., etc. I guess I just don't see the problem, especially since those guns were never issued and most were never held by an Irish hand. Guns coming in through Canada would also have to be marked last I heard, it is a foreign country (and the Canadians want to keep it that way). That kind of import is usually for rare and valuable guns it probably would not be allowed for a common rifle. A 'one-off" import by an individual would not have to be marked, but would also be costly and difficult to set up. The change grew out of the difficulty, in November 1963, of determining which company imported the infamous Carcano used by Oswald, so it could be traced to a buyer.ĪFIAK, that applies only to commercial, licensed importers. The 1968 law changed the rule for firearms to require the importer to put on his name, the now familiar "import stamp". Prior to 1968, firearms (and any other imported product) had to be marked with the Country of Origin (COO) under a law passed around 1906.
