P14 Eddystone 303 British Rifle

A 1914 Pattern ERA (Eddystone Rifled Arms) rifle for your perusal. (The only thing for sale here is the rifle itself, bayonet, helmet flag, medal and cartridges are just there to spruce up my pictures) Wood is in good condition and has the usual bumps and bruises expected from a 110 year old military rifle. The one exception is an old honest arsenal repair on the heel of the buttstock.  Still has a paint bluff of the rack number present.  Metal in good condition, no rust or pitting, I have included a picture of a shell inverted in the muzzle, lots of rifling left.  Receiver, bolt and barrel numbers match, rear sight does not. Rear peep sight is present (looks to be original) unusual as most ended up on the floor at Weedon.  The forward volley sight is present as well, but that looks to be a reproduction.  Everything looks to be in great working order action is smooth.  

I have had this rifle for about 5 years but never fired it, so as with any gun if you intend to shoot it, it would be a good idea to get it checked out by a knowledgeable gunsmith. If you require any specific pictures send me your email address or text number and I will do my best to get them for you. My reason for selling is that I have a second P14 and really don’t have a need for two.  Not really interested in trades at this time as I want to use the funds from this sale to purchase something else.  
 

Terms: PAL required.  Buyer pays shipping. Rifle is available for local pickup if desired.  First “I’ll take it” with payment gets it.  Asking $975
