    The bolt you could find on ebay in all likelihood. I've seen them there in the past. I however would not buy a bolt without having the action in hand. You have to be careful that they aren't trying to pass off a carcano bolt. They are similar but not the same and they are not interchangeable. ebay had been letting actions slide by for a while but I think they have figured this out now and are no longer allowing them to be sold. Some guys are still trying to get around the restriction by not showing the entire action on the photo making them appear to be cut. Depending on which state you live in this may or may not be legal to purchase in this manner. I live in a state which allows long guns to be sold between private parties.

    The problem is, a lot of guys will not know what it is. They are going to look at photos and assume it is a carcano (which it is) but of the Italianicon variety. So there is a possibility they will be selling it as an Italian barreled action. The sights are a dead giveaway. Check Italian listings and look closely at the photos.

    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.
