    Rare/Old 1903 bolt code S-30. 1906-1908??

    I have a old 1903 bolt stamped S-30 on the bottom of the safety lug. John Beardicon's chart says its a Springfield Armory Mid 1906-Mid 1908 production vintage bolt. Mine is pakerized and came with a batch of WW2 parts. Any idea of the value? It looks unused except for two arsenal looking punch marks on the lower left front locking lug and the parkerizing job.
    Thanks in advance, Peter "pan957@hotmail.com"

    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.

    Sounds like it went through an arsenal rebuild.

    Your bolt is worth in the $10-$30 range.

    Hope this helps. Happy Holidays!
