    I kinda like it personally, it gives the stock a little character.

    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 ...

    Personally, I would leave it. You can always remove it later, but you can never get it back. I had one with a "yellow" paint job on the grip (but no korean markings on the buttstock)

    War paint

    JASCO, covered with foil, for about half hour removed it completely, but somehow the wood just lacks the same character now.

    "Painter777" and I have refinished many, many Korean stocks and removed the ugly paint....

    MANY still have good WWII markings below the paint.
