I came into a SMLE this summer, along with a Remington rolling block. I'll be parting with rolling block, but the SMLE has captured my attention. It came with an old box of Remington 303 ammo but I'm hesitant to shoot the rifle. I've had it looked over, it's complete and in pretty good shape for a rifle made in 1912. I hope the folks here will help me along as I learn about this very cool piece of history.

Not a 1912 I guess, 1911?
