    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 ...

    Andy yours is very close to mine (1426587). Mine has an "I" cut stock. I'm not sure if it is correct but all the information that has been presented to me says it is. Yours is so nice and having the look of a match, it would be difficult not to think it is right. Very nice again.

    Andy, here is a photobucket layout of mine. Please keep in mind that mine is a restoration. It had a lot of the correct parts when I got 20 plus years ago but I changed a lot also. I replaced the stock, handguard, trigger housing, rear sight, hammer and hammer spring. Mine looks like it has all the same parts as yours so I'm happy I did it up right. My reciever, slide and bolt have the original finish and it looks exactly like your finish. The trigger housing is cast and looks like it has been blasted and refinished but it is very close in color to the original. The flaming bomb on the heal is very light but there. I'm missing the spring loaded take down pin.

    I would like your opinion please.

    Underwood

    Bill, I think your stock is too early for your receiver, however its a different maker [Rock-ola] as well, if indeed its an Underwood type 1, its for an earlier carbine, my info shows type 2 beginning at 1,380,000, and not RMC coded.
    My hammer is blued too...once the word "restoration" is used...I get scared...otherwise it looks very nice...
