    Need a 03 Springfiels receiver

    I have looked high and low for a surplus receiver. Anyone got any ideas where I can find one. I like building my own and this is getting ridiculous. Helps appreciated.

    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Here are some pictures of a nice one, Bubba free receiver early small bow stamped bottom metal, no drill purpose but with a replacement bolt marked H/o at bottom of root handle. Maybe a more knowledgeable member could educate on the origin of the bolt, Hoover ball bearing maybe IDk. it has bolt stop indent and small single gas escape hole. Let see who jumps in that knows, you can p.m. for offer
