    Parts in question:

    Trigger guard maybe Winchester

    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.

    Congrats! Sounds like you scored a few nice WRA parts. What grade of rifle was this? Hope you get well soon so you can post some pics.

    It is a rack grade. Muzzle is 3 and TE is 5.5. It looks to have a nice original finish also. I'll get it cleaned up and some photos posted in the next few days.
