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.

I believe that the style changed in Oct/November 1944 from Roman to Arabic. It would fit in with your 1944 Mk2. But give us the gun number and it'll certainly date it quite accurately

Next question

An added afterthought....... At the same time, the early Mk3 Bren Guns changed as well.

I've got the change listed as Aug 44, which means a M67 marked Mk2 should have a serial number of RA3500ish to RB6000ish

The Inglis MkII appears to have stayed marked as MkII as one of my MkIIs 1945 Number 15T6949 is marked as such.

I never discovered why we changed from Roman to Arabic. Maybe we liked the Arabs more than we liked the Romans. How times have changed!!!!!!!

I think there was a TV series called 'What the Romans did for us'. I didn't watch it, except the bit about paying their Soldiers in Salt, hence salary. I'm glad I'm not getting paid in salt now!
