5.1 Mil IHC With HRA Stock

**Durango56** · 04-24-2022 08:26 PM

I read an article in GCA icon

journal volume 19 number 2 about IHC rifles in early 5mil range being original with HRA stocks. I assume these had the IHC DAS with higher arc on stars and lightly stamped edges on circle P anyone know for sure?

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.

You have to contact Wayne Bradford who is considered the expert on all IHC stuff. I do not believe he has posted on
this site so you might post your questions on some other websites

Thanks,
I talked to Gary and he stated if an HRA stock was used on an IHC rifle it should indeed have the higher arch stars DAS and broken circle P.

I'm wondering why that would be. Stocks were not pre-stamped, they were marked when the rifle was accepted. Wouldn't that be done by the normal IHC inspectors?

Yes, it would have been stamped by the IHC inspectors with their stamps

Got it... I thought they meant HRA-stamped DAS, my mistake.
