    No debate, the safeties are the same except the early flat top for SA (WRA used flat tops) and the rounded top. Either will work in the modified pad M1 and will work in the M14 and M1Aicon trigger housings. The only caveat that comes to mind and if IIRC is the use of a rounded top in large pad (unmodified pad) trigger housing.

    It would be nice to see your trigger group with the hammer forward.

    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 ...

    What was the difference, other than the number, between the one that worked and the one that didn't?
