    guys, from these two not so good pictures, can you tell me what is wrong. i know the grips are wrong with the mag but, does the slide look right for the receiver. i understand that all parts should be marked with an S.

    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.

    It looks like the slide was bead blasted or sand blasted and then refinished. Who knows what the extra letters and numbers designate.

    FYI.... Not all parts, and sometimes even they were missed. It pays to know what you are looking at, as Springfield, just like any other manufacturer, have distinct differences, and machining finishes, in the manufacturing process.
