Has anyone noticed that this receiver has an extra wide rib on the left side, less than a dozen receivers have been found with this extra wide rib

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.

Any way to post some pic's - congrats on the cool 5 digit and the barrel is possibly quite intriguing ...

Follow up to the 7th round issue. After a good cleaning of the ribs they show to have been fixed but the top of the ribs have been banged up or peined for some reason. Wishful thinking on my part but atleast I have a prewar receiver. Have to wait til I get it together and see if the fix still works or not. But for $100 I'll still keep it.

I have this 7th round photo before and after, a bit fuzzy but it shows what we need..........Photo was copied from the forum, poster name not saved.

So the 7th round modification was done on only the clip latch side of the receiver correct? Was there any modifications to the Op Rod Side?
