Hello,

does anyone know what this stamp means? It looks like a pine tree in a circle.

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.

With what appears to be Arabic markings on the receiver, it could be a Cedar tree, the symbol of Lebanon.

@Tom in N.J.: The markings you see on the receiver aren't Arabic, it is what's left of the the original British icon

proof markings, they seem to have been scrubbed off. There are Arab markings on the unit marking disk on the right side of the stock. My first tought also was Lebanon, but I am not sure.

If it is an acceptance mark of Lebanon, does somebody know in what period it was used and if it is used on other types of firearms of the Lebanese armed forces?
