    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 ...

    No, that's not the one you normally see on NPM carbines. However, they could have had another supplier for type two barrel bands or got some integrated through another manufacturer. I know they got some type one or twos from Inland during this time frame. Does the front sight look as though it's been off of the muzzle? That could tell a lot about your issue.

    I was just looking at my '45 Inland and it's has that hole between the top 2 weld scars and it's a T3 with the Bayonet Lug.

    I agree with Del, I have seen several original late NPM and the typical type 2 band found on them is not like the one in your pictures.

    Yep, When John mentioned that I saw them in Harrison's Book with the lower screw hole on them and also said No Markings. Maybe some were integrated late to NPM like he mentioned. I'm just glad it's not a T3. The Barrel looks like it never had a T3 on it. The Sear is Marked SW-N. I've seen a couple of them without the dash just SWN. Some NPM Sears I've also seen had some discoloration on them. I have to go back and find them so I can copy the address and post it. Maybe they were fake.
