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.

D31543 is shown

It was converted 4th Jan 1971 as part of batch no. 4

Colin,
Apologies.......early morning eyes must have missed it in all the pages of L42's....off to Spec Savers

**Seaforth72** · 10-28-2022 03:05 PM

L42A1 converted in 1971 allegedly, with the very unusual serial number of “ SA71/1 “. Does this one show up on the list please?

It is with alleged L42A1 AS3070 which you reported is NOT on the list.

**Gil Boyd** · 10-29-2022 03:26 AM

Sadly neither on the lists having checked them several times now, but there is one very close but not AS3070.

There were some made up 'L42' type rifles which one UK icon

dealer was claiming were made for a South Africa contract, with no L42 markings at all. I think they used the SA71/X serial numbers.

Thank you. As always, “caveat emptor” (buyer beware).

Have a bit of an enigma that I was looking for advice on- I have an L42 with serial number T33838 which is dated '71, the bolt is dated 38338 however, this came from a private collection and has obviously been cared for, and shoots exceptionally well. Also have an Enforcer with serial number 373. Any information would be greatly appreciated!
