    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Very nice, I've been thinking about picking one up recently. Yours is very attractive and I assume the bore is great?
    Also, what is stamped on the crest? M48 or M48A?

    Even better- the M48s are a bit less common than others; just under 100,000 were produced in 1952. This can be referenced on page 171 of Serbian and Yugoslav Mauser Rifles by Brank Bogdanovic. It's one of the better northcape publications books out there. I highly recommend it if you don't already have it, especially if you are going to be dealing with Yugoicon rifles a bit. Beyond that, it's relatively in experience (I think it's around $20 or so on Amazon or Brownells) and considering how commonly Yugos tend to be encountered, not a bad thing to read up on anyway.

    Anyway, very nice specimen!
