    Again, based just on "eyes" alone, I have seen considerably more M1903s in that range than M1903A3s.

    I have a 3,356,000 range M1903A3. Would like to find a HIGHER numbered M1903. A few years ago, 3,360,000 range M1903s were pretty common - I haven't seen one in some time.

    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 ...

    Thank You

    Thank you everyone for your input on this rifle. The seller had it advertised as a 1903A3 then after my questions said he was selling it on GB for a friend and didn't notice the mistake. In any event he was a great guy, returned my USPS money order and I'm back looking for something a little more original. Thanks again.
