MARSTAR IS PROUD TO INTRODUCE THIS VERY LIMITED PRODUCTION RIFLE

Like all the rifles in the M10 series, the B3 rifle incorporates a long list of standard features, improvements, and refinements over the venerable SMLE rifle while retaining its superb balance, reliability, and lightning quick Lee Enfield action shooters throughout the commonwealth know and love.

The B3 rifle is blued and, like the other rifles in AIA's M10 lineup, both compatible with surplus SMLE No.4 ladder sights and factory drilled and tapped for a steel weaver rail (picatinny M1913) which is included.

A chrome-lined free-floating target-crowned barrel, easily detachable ten round box magazines, use of widely available 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester) ammunition, factory setup for optional steel weaver scope rail, forged receiver 1.5x thicker than the original, and Brewer locking collar (Savage) headspacing system are a few of the many design enhancements which make the M10 rifle a Lee Enfield for the 21st century.

The M10-B3 Barrel is truly unique, it was made from the original plans and specification of the M134 mini-gun barrel. The thickness of the chrome is approximately four times that of industry standards Even thicker at the muzzle. The manufacturing process for the barrel is very difficult and costly, as a result they are no longer being made. A very limited number were obtained and fitted to these very special rifles. The projected barrel life is between 50,000 and 100,000 rounds.

The Monte Carlo stock of the M10 B3 is plantation teak from the Ivory Coast of Africa with a hand rubbed oil finish. Some of the external components of the B3 have been hard chromed, including the butt plate, sling swivels and nose cap. By far the most prestigious rifle ever produced by Australian International Arms, a masterpiece.
