    It's interesting to see that independent from the manufacturer the used fonts on earlier pieces differ a lot from the older one's. Do you may have pictures of your early pieces?

    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 have Colt 1883 shotgun #603, Armalite AR10 #000075, ex IRA M1921 Thompson #750, NZ Sten #985, Austen #270, ZK383 #00554, Lithgowicon L1A1 #AD5903978 (Ist year), .223 Worthington experimental #00002. Although the L1A1 is the 3978th Lithgow made, their survival rate is very low from the first year.

    I have an Argentineicon M1909 with serial number A0001. Would love to find the bayonet for it. Also have a P14 with three digit serial number.
