    .30 cal m1

    Hi

    New to group and first time posting.

    I have a .30 cal carbine with serial number 332878.

    Does any one know a link where I can find more about this rifle?

    Can't find any markings showing it was a military issued rifle.

    Thanks

    Alton

    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.

    The ring of the receiver where the bolt closes should have 'U.S. Carbine Cal. .30 M1icon'. Pull the slide back to see it clearly.
