1941 Lithgow SMLE
Pulled down one of my Enfields and took some pictures. 1941 Lithgow No.1 MkIII, with a Sanders 1907 pattern bayonet, an imposing piece of steel to be sure. I can only imagine what the rifle experienced over it's lifetime, and the bayonet would have an even more amazing story I'd bet. I picked it up, along with few others, from a bazaar in Afghanistan. Needless to say, I'd bet it got around.

3rd picture down is very cool. I came over from Tams, I like your layout (great background color choice, easy on the eyes.) and material.
Best! McVee
I like to think of the color scheme as "the coffee layout." I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
That picture did turn out decently. That is by far my favorite bayonet for any of my mil-surp pieces.
Thanks for the kind words!
