    Simon,
    Sorry I hope I didn’t offend you, I just meant the distinction of 1970 – 75 batch of L42’s to the 1980’s batches. Thank you to Roger for the clarification it is an interesting tread and subject, I personally am fascinated by the L42’s, and thanks to PL, RP, and XL39A1 have managed to gain a better understanding and respect for these rifles. I wonder if there any more pictures of civilian owned 1980’s L42 about?

    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.

    Not on our site that I've been able to find. But keep checking in, there's no telling when one will pop up.

    Danl96a1,

    Not at all, my reply was meant to be tongue in cheek.

    Cheers,

    Simon.
