    Lyman Rear Sight

    I'm looking on Ebay for a Lyman 48 rear sight. But not sure if I need the 48M or 48SME for my 98 Mauser receiver. Anybody know for sure? Thank you.

    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.

    48M was for the Mauser Gew.98 receiver.
    48SMP was for the Swedishicon Mauser.
    57SME was for the Springfield '03
    And I can't find any mention of a 48SME, neither online nor in my books.
    Are you sure that you have the right designation as 48SME?

    The 57SME will work. I put one on mine & it fit perfectly.
