Yes. It's to ensure that the correctly fitted bolt that's correct for the CHS on the rifle always goes back on the same rifle. Same as numbered nosecap, fore-end and backsight. These ensure that the accuracy is maintained when the rifle is re-assembled in the Armourers shop

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.

Thanks Peter,
You are a gold mine of information for folks who don't know much about these rifles!

Best Wishes,
DocBob

Thanks for those kind words docbob. I just want to make what I've learned over the years available to everyone before I make it to the big Armourers shop in the sky - and have a brew (Armourers term for a cup of tea that every Armourers shop all over the world always has on the go.....) and a chat with the likes of KimW late of NZ icon

. But I don't plan on going JUST yet!

What does the "HV SC" Stamping stand for? I'd assume "HV" is high velocity but I'm unsure on the SC.
