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.

Good Day,
I don't believe that is for a M14 icon

, the setup pictured is for the Hk91 and should work in the German icon

military G3.

Michael

Michael,
I was also going to suggest the German icon

G3 as I see a couple of German pieces in that box which makes that highly possible ie German Army chain pull through cleaning kit box and magazine lips!

**browningautorifle** · 11-21-2018 08:03 AM

Yes, German icon

G3. I don't remember there ever being a .22 kit for the M14 icon

.

In the book "The Black Rifle" story about the M16 there are a few pages which show a TRW M14 icon

converted to use the 5,56mm M16 cartridge, the M16 magazine was also used.
This was an attempt to salvage something from the cancelled M14 contract. There were a few examples produced.

But...not a standard drop in kit like several other had... A scarce and special conversion...

Jim,
Yes like the H&K commonly known kit to do this
