This video explores the British SMLE sniper rifle used during World War One. It details how the British initially lacked a sniper program but quickly developed one in response to German snipers. Early British sniper rifles were a mix of commercial hunting rifles, but by 1915, SMLE and Pattern 1914 rifles were being fitted with 3x and 4x telescopes. Approximately 10,000 scoped sniper rifles were issued, featuring various scopes and mounts before a standardized pattern emerged in 1918. The example showcased is a common SMLE with an offset Periscopic Prism Company scope and a matching 5-screw mount. The video notes the eventual shift away from offset mounts to center-mounted scopes.
