Bayonet lug screw

**tommyjoe** · 11-18-2009 08:58 AM

Does anyone know the thread size for the screw in the bayonet lug for the 03a3?
I need to buy a tap and clean the threads on mine.
Thanks Tom

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.

"United States icon

Rifles and Machine Guns, A detailed Account of the Methods Used in Manufacturing the Springfiled, 1903 Model Service Rifle; Also Descriptions of the Modified Enfield Rifle icon

and Three Types of Machine Guns" by Fred H. Colvin and Ethen Viall give confusing data. In one place they call a thread with a diameter of .185 and 26 threads per inch and in another place it calls out a thread with a diameter of .185 but 25 threads per inch. Could not find information on the screw so cannot which callout is more correct.
