It probably originally had a mk2 sight on it. That's probably why it was changed. The Mk1 is a nicer sight.

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.

It looks like a nice rifle with mostly genuine Savage parts. The Mk 1 backsight is definitely not original: it was made at ROF Fazackerly (Liverpool, England icon

). Also the magazine, though numbered up, doesn't look like the normal Savage type which has a distinctive base. The mushroom headed Mk 1 cocking piece is nice, and appropriate for an early Savage but I suspect would have been replaced by the flat sided Mk 2 type by 35C serial numbers. It would be a good idea just to check that the locking lugs on the bolt are in proper contact with the resistance shoulders on both sides of the action body.
