    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.

    douglas670,

    Have got one, its the one on this forum, few threads down, its not the best condition, look in:

    (Pics/info for DoubleD)

    (Best Martini)

    Was going to deac it but after info from DoubleD, decided to keep as a live one, as i,ve been off work for a while and and need some cash have been shifting some (surplus to requirements) rifles.

    Bore is not that bad looks like it may of been counterbored at some point, will need to re proof but will check for any recent marks, also the butt plate is corroded the rest is quite good, have a look at pics if interested PM me.

    If it is a .303, it's not a Martini Henry. .303's are Martini Metford or Martin Enfield.

    Henry-Metford-Enfield refers to the type of rifling in the barrel. This rifle is clearly marked ME, Martini Enfield.
