The stock doesn't look broken, but rather deliberatly shortened.

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.

Ive read where the indians were big on making the stock's shorter and useing the metal stock plate for making tool's. Just a guess

.
If it were mine id put it back togeather somehow.
It would make a great wall hanger.
Still a part of our Hisitory.

CAFDFW: i have the gun, he owed me some money that i will never see so i took the gun as a payment
IBOOS and JOHN SUKEY: it looks like the stock was cut down to resemble a recoil pad
