    Pinned stock, versus bolts..03-A3?

    The early unboxed FJA on the earlier..1-43 RA M1903-A3's, like mine, were pins used, or was this stock supposedly bolted? I remember this from a few years ago on the old board. I think mine is correct, with pins? 337XXXX/1-43?

    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.

    Mine is close to yours, and it has pins. I always assumed mine was correct.
