MKIII Sear Spring Softening

**CINDERS** · 02-04-2018 07:57 AM

All I did with all my 303's apart from the 1921 Lithgow icon

(Which is a safe queen) is carefully and I stress carefully polish the flat & tip of the sear then the same to the "nose" of the cocking piece then the nodes on the trigger as well as polish the retaining pins for the trigger & sear this is done with a small hand held super el' cheapo dremel (as I am really cheap) from Bunnings that stops cold when any type of pressure is put on it took a while to do them, no angles were changed or hard facing, I now have buttery smooth 1st pull & let off.

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.

Well you're more cultured than me Ron. At least you call the two little bumps on the trigger 'nodes'; I call them ''tXXs'! Mind you, I was dragged up.........

**englishman_ca** · 02-04-2018 11:19 AM

Without niXXles ''tXXs' would be pointless.

Ahahaha that's a laugh.

And cheers Cinders, I have a little rotary tool/mini drill I polish things with, so I can do that easy.

I was trying to be politically correct as not wanting to state the obvious other than saying nixxles.

Nodes just sprang to mind..........
