    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 ...

    Gents I'm not pulling info out of my butt. I took the info from Canfield's book and he says QHMC 1555000-1562519, 1562520-1662519,1675040-1907519,1907520-1937519,4432100-4532099,4632100-4879525 or table 22 in the back of the book. Are you telling me his book is wrong? Has anyone told him that?
    Regards, Jim

    No problem BAR. I'm sure he knows but it may be publisher thing. Even old George had his SN list on the infamous Riverbank site.

    Well, the old aluminum foil and dental floss trick worked!!! The receiver is marked SAGINAW S.G... Do any of you have any idea what the history of this gun is and a value. I was told it was an Underwood , but they were mistaken. It has the adjustable rear sight and a flat bolt. The stock has a mark in the strap cutout that looks like 10 ... Any idea's anyone. Thanks,

    It's an Inland stock. The I is not the numeral one, it's the letter I. Is it an I cut highwood, an oval cut high wood, or an oval cut low wood stock?

    p.s. I am new to carbines
    Judging from the serial number you posted and the fact it has an Underwood barrel, I'd say you have a Saginaw S'G' carbine. The first Irwin-Pederson/S'G' serial number range ran from 1,762,520 to 1,875,039. I'm guessing the barrel is dated 8-43 or 9-43?
    Hope this helps . . .

    PS Sorry for the redundancy, I thought I was the 3rd poster! Am I close on the barrel date?
