Some interesting Saginaw Grand Rapids receiver features.

The left side shots show it's an SG receiver since it has no locator hole, also the wide tang. Those do have the different slide groove termination

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.

Did anyone yet step up to do one?

**cpc** · 03-15-2020 09:41 PM

Is there anything different/special about a prime in the 3629 range?

**tenOC** · 03-16-2020 07:34 AM

Normally, not. They're in the serial range normally associated with S.G.. If it doesn't have the locator hole on the left side it's a transferred receiver.

**cpc** · 03-18-2020 02:14 PM

No locator hole.

**tenOC** · 03-18-2020 10:24 PM

Ok, it's possibly one of the SG made ones. From what I've experienced people who know prefer the locator hole style receiver for S'G' just a bit more than the SG one.

Thank you.
