    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.

    Hi duggaboy,

    You have to move the front sight. Or use a Tunheden rear sight or an Pram, Söderin or diopter sight.

    Regards

    Hi duggaboy, i dont know where to get it in the States, but it seems that Numrich or Sarco are well sorted dealers. Try it. Over here i`ll know where to buy and if your dealers dont have them let me know and i ask ours if they will ship to the States. For drifting the frontsight blade it has a special tool. But it is easy to make it for an good machinist. I add a pic and you can see how to make. The original ones are expensive.

    Regards

    Gunner

    For the moment there is no chance to add a pic the "Manage your Attachements" button is not to see. But if you want send me an PM.
