    I have a 1891 Argentine with #P1649 stamped on the parts..

    As best as I can tell, the last letter used for serial number was "O". My only guess is that there were some made in 1896...probably the last produced...that used "P" as the first digit of the serial numbers..It is very nicely blued...much better than some others I have seen...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    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.
