    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.

    As the seller says " It could [needs] a good cleaning." Looks like some surface pitting under the crud.GK

    QHMC Big Wheel CC and has the early punch style staking of the rear sight we often see on these early Q's.
    Just wonder how well the metal has held up under that grime?

    Nice to see either way, doesn't appear to be messed with.

    Thx Chris for the heads up,

    Question Qrmc?

    I have one just a little later 1,599,--- that made COM. It has the sq. s/Q rear sight and large ordnance wheel also. The only thing that don't look OK to me is the safety and mag. catch, but that may just be the lighting.

    The metal could be a problem, not sure it would clean up. I'm atracted to it's originality, given most of what I see on GB are mixed part guns. I do like the wood probabaly because I don't own a high wood I stock carbine, and not in a position to bid on this one.
