I have located a loading gate cover and mag cutoff switch but cant find a screw for the loading gate cover. can anyone help me find where i can locate the proper screw and/or an acceptable replacement? same question sort of question on an ejection port cover. Thanks in advance. Dave

    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.

    Tons of Swissicon Vetterli parts on ebay. People are always listing them so keep checking until the parts you need come up.

    Go over and ask on the swiss rifle forum. Someone there should be able to help you.
