    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. Brian Dick ...

    Nice rifle. The bayonet is Korean war era. A WW2 Bayo would have the hole that fits over the muzzle instead of the pin that fits in the gas plug.

    Nice rifle, yes, the M1icon or 1905E5 bayonet would be better. Also a 1907 sling or at least a flat slider sling...

    The last I knew the CMPicon still had a selection of Bayos for sale. both the original 10" and also some cutdowns I have one of each. The original 10" and both a spear point and a drop point cutdown and 2 17 inchers.

    Yes, the bayonet is a korean era, it belongs to my 1954 HRA,
    What is cool is that a WWII rifle that has its origional barrel with low readings.

    Oprod

    Your Oprod is wrong. Should be a flat sided -9 SA with NO cut on the unit.
    I beleive the stock should still be a NFR cartouche. All items can be easily corrected.

    Good luck

    It seems the bolt was also stuck in a time warp!
    Looks very nice though, you may gift it to me without any remorse.
