    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.

    Odd serial number

    Guys,
    I recently purchased a 1950 Longbranch Mk1* that came with a PH5C rear sight and has DCRA stamps in it along with C broad arrows. The serial number on the band, bolt and magazine match. The rifle is in amazing condition but the serial number is Bl11926 there is just enough patina on this rifle that shows light usage over the last 70 years but absolutely no signs of an FTR. Please help?

    The DCRA rifles had a separate serial number applied. I believe there is a known list of all DCRA rifles. A search for that here and a few other sites will yield that information.
    Verify that your rifle is there, and there's your answer. If it was made as a purpose built civilian target rifle, the chance for a post DCRA conversion FTR had long past.
