    That's a beautiful rack of carbines! I didn't understand your level of carbine knowledge or I wouldn't have posted the advice I did. Obviously you want to make one in early configuration and don't want to use fake parts. Good luck! Would like to see it when you're done.

    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.

    Thanks for the all the replies.

    And Inland44, your first response really got me thinking. Although I have been a member here and on Culvers, CMPicon, etc. for several years, I really have not posted much. I could have provided more info in my first post than I did as to what my intentions were with the barreled receivers.

    I was fortunate to find CMP a few months before the carbine frenzy and was able to get most of my carbines through them. The other 4 were purchased at a local gun show here in Denver and at the CMP "for sale" site.

    None of my carbines are "correct as issued" and never will be. I like them the way they are.

    Ray
