Short Magazine Lee-Enfield No. III Star
The Short Magazine Lee-Enfield, or SMLE was the standard issue rifle of British Imperial forces in the First World War and into the beginning of the Second World War. This model, a III Star, was first produced in 1916 and was considered a “waretime simplified” version of the rifle that did away with things like volley sights and other “luxuries” that added machine time to production in the midst of the First World War. This example includes an original bayonet, original bayonet sheath, and an available spare barrel chambered in .308 that is not original to the rifle. The last SMLE III Star was produced in 1953 at the close of the British Empire. This rifle really was the rifle that carried the Empire through both World Wars and to its decolonial period.

Browse the catalog, apply filters as needed, and open the product page of the gun that best fits your needs and preferences.

You’ll select FFL during checkout. You may need to ask the dealer to email a signed copy of their FFL to [email protected], referencing your order number. They must also authorize shipment to their address. This is a general list of FFL dealers and not necessarily a list of who we ship to.
When your firearm arrives, visit the FFL to complete the ATF Form 4473, background check, and any state paperwork. Bring valid photo ID (and permits, if required), pay the dealer’s transfer fee and taxes, then head to the range with your new purchase!
