    Is it yours.........

    If you do, it was one of those used for wartime trials early in 1945 and we have a bit of info/pictures here

    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 ...

    Further to this thread for the forumer collecting genuine from new matching rifle and scope numbers. This might put a cat among the pigeons because the D- prefix rifle is presumably well prior to this 1945 dated AKS 18103 Mk3 telescope

    DPL.,
    No such luck, sadly. Have just been through about 200 T serials in my register; mainly of rifles that have been through my hands since about 1995. Only one D prefix in total; though lots of V's, X's, B's, G's, P's, R's & various other letters.

    Make that two D prefix's and not far away from the subject rifle and scope numbers as well. Now we really have set the cat among the pigeons...or old crows among the dogs at the case might be. :-)##

    Update: My rifle is dated 1944
