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.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Looks like it could have been headed for the Enforcer market or similar with the D marking you describe!!
Strange bolt number too

Started out life as an Envoy #498. Matching bolt correctly proofed. It's been revamped into a one piece with a target trigger. Has been rebarrel "D 70" 1970 replacement L42 profile barrel. The chap that did the conversion has stamped the barrel on the underside just ahead of the forearm. I would suspect that this shot very well...competitors were always looking for an edge...they weren't into collectibles. Disheartening to see as there are not a lot of Envoys around just like their cousin the "Enforcer". Well worth the bid price for just the parts!

Ron,
Agreed

**Brian Dick** · 02-01-2014 09:41 PM

The marking on the underside of the barrel is an import mark. I suspect it was butchered long before it was imported to the USA icon
