    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.

    Look closely to see if theres a faint "I" after the R. Inland used RI and some stamping is really faint; especially if they've been refinished.

    Thanks for the reply; Before I gave the rifle back to my brother I looked real close at the markings and wrote them down. The trigger has a real deep and distinct R and with a magnifying glass I could see no trace of an I . Next time I see the gun I'll take a pic. Thanks again

    Look at the upper rear portion of the trigger for a series of horizontal milling lines. Only one manufacturer has them.
