    Question on 98k Stock

    I purchased a Germanicon mause that i was told was original. It was made by JP Sauer and Sohn (147) in 1940. The but plate is flat and does not wrap around the side of the stock like most ive seen. Is it possible that it had a flat style but plate when it left the factork in 1940 or was i taken advantage of?

    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 believe your flat buttplate is correct. Others will chime in on this. Regards, Rick.

    Cupped butt plates came into use in 1940. Flat continued to be used into 1941.
