.303 Greek Ammo

[Tom in GA]

I plan to have a sale table at an Atlanta October gun show. I am planning to sell some excellent Greek .303 ammo at $40 for 60 rounds. Is that a fair price?

Yes I think so. I don't know much about Greek .303 ammo but I shoot 30.06 Greek Ammo. If the ammo is on par with the '06 stuff I shoot I would buy from you at that price. Which ATL area show?

Yup. I'd buy it for that in a heartbeat.

In my opinion, it's priceless. I would shoot mine before I sell it. May I ask why you are selling it?

As I have retired and having aged a bit, I have sold most of my US and British collection. The last piece to go will be a original Eddystone Pattern 14, Mk I (not MkI*). Bore and wood are in excellent condition. This has never been through FTR. It still has the long range sights. It is all marked 'E'. The rifle was made in 1916 with a serial number 17xxx. Rifle is marked 'EY". It comes with a Pattern 1913 bayonet by Remington, a follower cutoff, cleaning kit and a leather 1916 dated sling...all in excellent condition.

At the October 18th Eastman show in the Atlanta Trade Center, I will also sell one unopened box of 48 rounds of Greek ammo with it. I am asking $975 for all. I have never seen another Pattern 14 rifle in this condition. It is not new or perfect....but it is close.

It is a 50/50 chance that the rifle will be sold before the show opens to the general public. Many pieces in my collection were sold to collectors contacting me or buying it off the sale table before the show opens.

My collection did include a number of interesting items: No.1 MK VI (not a trials rifle), .308 Sterling conversion, a stunning CLLE, No1 MI***, original unmolested Canadian Ross Mk III, a hooked quillon P1907 bayonet with the original Mk I scabbard rack numbered together and property of the Coldstream Guards, Canadian No. 4 Mk I* with 6 groove Bren gun barrel.
