I got an Enfield for Christmas one year, but a year or two later had to part with it to pay bills. A couple of months ago I told Number 1 Son that I'd like another, and he bought me one...

Now I have to resist the option to start hunting for an M1 icon

Carbine to replace that one my father-in-law had and my brother-in-law let get away....

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.

Good day, folks.

I'm kinda new to the forum (been here awhile but not real active). I'm doing some studying and working on developing skills to do gunsmith work, hoping to get that going for my "retirement project" and stay busy.

Any advice or encouragement would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

**Madmike13** · 08-13-2020 11:16 PM

I'm new here, just recently got into MILSURP rifles, last week I picked up a Mosin Nagant 91/30, nice piece, cleaned it, bought some rounds and it shoots very nicely, and today I picked up a 1923 Enfield MK3..also a nice piece but someone in the past put a Bishop stock on it, and I think it may be cracked due to the rear stock shimmys a bit. Been trying to remove the stock to look but cant figure it out...any suggestions? Anyway, I am looking forward to researching all the markings on both rifles, this should be fun!!....meant Hello...not Hellp...but I do need help..
