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.

the height of the stock from the receiver surface to the trigger guard pad surface affects how "tight" lockup can be. measure and compare to some of your M1 icon

's, you might be surprised.

its not a problem locking up the trigger guard. its hard to get the thing installed so i can lock up the guard.

i think the rear lugs are a bit compressed

These are pics of a BM59 trig assy I got from Reese last fall. I returned it because the lugs were "egged".
Check the wear marks in my pics to see if the match your part.

I dont' know if an M1 icon

stamped guard will substitute but why fool around. If the lugs look like this they are definitely not new.

thanks rotor. i'll take a closer look. did you just return the trigger housing group or the whole rifle?

**Rotor** · 04-01-2009 05:56 PM

No, it was just the trigger group not a whole rifle.
