    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.

    I doubt if that is the original bolt - it isn't pinned.

    It sure reads like a book doesn't it? Those DP stocks came in from during the '80s and were all snapped up to redo sporters. Looks like a nail used as a pin at the front sight. It needs everything.

    Looks like an Indian DP. But the front nose cap looks re manufactured.

    Yes, you can find the new made ones if you look. I think we have a member here that can produce them.

    No doubt a barreled action from a sported rifle set up in a stock salvaged from an Indian DP.
    A noted Canadianicon dealer with a US presence was humping a similar composite, with quite the tale of the rifle's history, based on the stock stamps. Of course the tale was only relevant to the stock...

    Bolts were pinned during WW2.
