Nowadays, it seems like the only place to find anything from the past is the online auction sites. You sure don't see them in the gun shops down in my area.
In the LE line up, what are you looking for?

I think the best place to find one would be in my gunsafe. I keep looking, but unfortunately I have yet to find one in there.

I've seen pretty decent deals on SMLEs on Gunbroker, believe it or not. I got one that had been very lightly sporterized (reversibly) a while back for $175.

A guy called Lion was selling a bunch of Enfields on the buy/sell forum a few months ago.

I got mine on GB. Excellent Mk 1 No. 4 Trick to auction sites is having patience and be willing to say no even though you want it. I know......it's a great deal, right. Trust me another will come up sooner than you think.

I know they had a bunch at the recent guns shows in Sweetwater and Abilene.
