BTW, this thread bounced back to the top due to new poll entries, I believe. Thanks to those who recently added to the poll. Feel free to supply more info if you want!

ETA (Very much later!): Running totals as of 10 March 2014 (Post #56)

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.

My 1971 dated rifle does not have the loop.

**Brian Dick** · 01-21-2017 02:24 PM

Another '71 dated, Navy Arms import L42A1 is here for a paint job and it's missing the loop.

Three No.8Mk.1's in the vault and ALL retain the loops.
