    K-31 Chargers, Color Meaning/Differance

    Guys,

    I have a K31icon 1944 production year. What would be the correct color for the chargers for this rifle, brown or violet? Does it matter?

    Also what is the difference in the "brown" chargers vs. the "violet" chargers? Years produced, mfg. etc.?

    Any information on the differences would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for any information and advise,

    320th

    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.
