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.

The Parker Hale 5B Micrometer rear sight with Parker Hale PH56 6 position aperature as used on P14 Target rifles can also be fitted to the M1917. The ranging graduations on the scale are calibrated for MkVII .303 ammo, but will be close enough for m2 ball. Both can be found on ebay.

Have you tried shooting with the sight leaf up and the and the ladder all the way down? It should put you close to a 200 yard zero. Another option is to get a set of front sight inserts for the british enfield, (they are interchanchable with the U.S. rifle), and put a taller front blade in. Springfield sporters used to carry them. You can also buy another front sight insert and modify it so it is taller or modify your existing front sight.
