A friend of mine showed me his No1MkIII today and I saw it has a lot of stamps on the stock. What do they mean?

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.

Ahh, the infamous JJCO import stamp. From the buttsocket markings, a 1915(?) RSAF Enfield that apparently the Aussies got a hold of. The double D's are an Australian icon

property mark. The 2 in between then would be 2nd Military District, the butt is off of an Australian Lithgow SMLE. Looks like a famous Jon Jovino 'bitser'. Jon Jovino was an importer of Australian rifles and parts, and would assemble whole rifles out of said parts. Looks like this is what your friend has.
