    Along with all the Carbine Club back issues I'll be reading soon. It looks like I'm going to have to take a photography class too!
    High School wasn't this hard!

    Thanks to All

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    No Denny, The humpers are getting so good that small things tell the difference. They have yet to reproduct the screw correctly. That is why I zeroed in on it. Before I posted first, I went to a real band and looked at it the same angle as your picture. I could see the cruve so I assumed I would be able to see the curve in your picture. Just you have two eyes and a camera only has one.

    PBI didn't say he parted it out. He has many connections in the carbine collecting world.

    [QUOTE=Denny779;71413]Thanks Charlie,
    Would a late first block Rock-Ola work?.
    I was shopping for an Underwood like you describe, this was my second choice.

    As far as I know;Underwoods used type 1A unmarked bands,late production used type II.

    The white bag carbines came in different ways. 5.0+ only a few parts changed and most not refinished. Early serial numbers all rebuilt at least once and all mixed parts. They may have new replacement barrels in original finish or the whole carbine was refinished.
    Here are ten White bag carbines.
