Type I band

**imarangemaster** · 12-24-2009 11:45 AM

Correct me if I ma wrong, but don't real type I bands have 2 or 3 spot welds holding the barrel retaining ring on? Here's one with only one weld (like repros) with some cosmolene smeared on Stamped "UN" he has one with UI stamped on it that he hasn't even bother to smear cosmo on. His escape clause is " I believe this band to be real but I am not an expert on these."

PS the UI one has a really large and odd script, too.

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.

Both bands are bad repros.

Maybe he used the swivel/band stamping service offered by that Ebay seller a while back.

Pretty funny.

He lists a repo band for $29.99

Then the other two stamped for $65

I guess two strokes of a hammer are worth $35.01

Listed as a New Inland trigger housing, for an M-2 but will work on an M-1.

Then you got better eyes than I do, because I still don't see it, even with my glasses on using a magnifying glass.
