    The follower arm bends quite easily Poobah and it doesn't take much. I had to bend the one on my son Jeff's Garandicon. Works great now!

    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.

    looking at my rifle (got it in front of me, lol) it seems like the lips of the enbloks would control the position of the waiting rounds, but im definitly no expert, lol.

    and i do have more than one follower that i could try it on.

    bill, what problem was your boys rifle having? ftf's? or a wierd crossways jamming problem?

    and is there anyway someone could post a pic of a follower and show me where and how you bend it? like i said, ive got a couple of extras and i could try it.

    im going to try to simulate what my jam looks like and take a pic of it and post it here. im probably not describing it very good.

    FTF. The bolt was just skipping over the round. A slight, and I mean very slight bend to the follower arm and the problem was fixed.
