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.

After seeing the second batch of pictures I am more inclined to think the pistol is original. Is the feed ramp finished over (not polished)?

**cplstevennorton** · 06-21-2009 07:13 PM

Yeah I agree, those pics like good to me as well. Take a picture of the feed ramp if you can and post that pic, just you like you took the outside series. That will tell us for sure.

But yeah that second set of pics, takes away a lot of my doubt.

The pistol looks original to me and the feed ramp looks finished...which is correct for many pistols in that specific serial range.

I didnt think the nationally known seller, an old friend would screw me...its a minty Ithaca as he said...but for the grips...who knows, unlike P08's, the correct parts arent numbered.
Thanks for the help..Andy

One last group..trigger guard...slide stop...look funny?
Discoloration on TG, like cut/weld? Hole in slidestop, filled in? Or am I seeing too much into it?

The Ithaca has pretty well been authenticated as original. Why go back and try to un-authenticate it?
