    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    The squiggly wire things are unloading tools. Two each of two different types. Not sure which, (if not all) "conveyors" they are designed for.
    Looking at the lever press type tool for loading and the spike on the other side for unloading, I'd say the lead projectile of the .22 rimfire is firmly seated into the bore of the conveyor. I don't know if they are rifled or not...
    Can't recall where the pics came from originally. I was lucky to retrieve them from my last motherboard fry-up.

    .22 Lee Enfield Trainer

    I have a similar Parker Hale conversion that I was going to post up here as I am missing the bolt for this rifle and was wondering if any were available.











    It also needs the 22 holder/conversion device.

    Any suggestions?

    Interesting rifle! From what I can tell it is a SMLE ConD IV with non-standard markings that was converted to a .22. Does your rifle have the external ejector also? If you could post more pic's I would be interested in seeing them

    I actually searched the Bren Forum posts to try and find this above referenced machinist post and was unable to locate anything regarding the manufacture of conveyors, adaptors or inserts......re:Parker Hale 22's.

    However, I now know a lot more about Brens than I did before.

    It's not a post directly addressing conveyors, adapters or inserts......re:Parker Hale 22's. Just gentleman offering his machining services...

    "I have been a toolmaker and machine builder for several decades, and have experience with .50BMG rifles, as well as machining of .50BMG components for semi-auto conversions. I also have an extensive collection of special tools to facilitate work on my semi-auto pistols, such as delrin devices for securely holding slides without wounding them, for disassembly/assembly, driving pins in or out, etc. I would be happy to lend any tools I have (like a special jig for decompressing/recompressing the mainspring on a Remington Model 51, for cleaning/oiling/replacement) to anyone who thought they could make good use of them, or perhaps make one for someone who wanted to own their own. I work for free, because to me, workiing on guns isn't working at all - it's having fun.

    If my email is not in my profile, let me know in this thread, and I will send it along, as well as my cell number for anyone who feels a personal conversation is a better way to explain what they need. Thanks for your time.

    Didn't say I did not have any spare conveyors, just not had the time to look for them...Also have two types of the expeller rods also. Picture on the way.
