Lee Enfield No. 1 MK III 1913

**Montgomery** · 09-22-2017 10:03 PM

Hello,
I recently pick up this one for few dollars. What is the meaning of LSACoL near the date? On the upper part of the receiver, the round guard over the bolt is gone. Is this have been removed to use a scope? Is there a way to refit one?

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. 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.

LSA Co Ld = London Small Arms Co. Ltd.

Unfortunately, the previous owner has hacked off the charger bridge. From what I have read, they were fitted individually, and the nearly invisible rivets/holes don't line up from rifle to rifle.

It was probably removed to mount that rather long-based rear aperture sight assembly.
