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.

Nothing in those pictures indicate its VOPO refurb. If you can get a picture of the left side of the reeiver ring, then it will be much easier to tell. You should find a x, and a sun burts. This will evidient on all VOPO's.

If you take the barrel out of the stock is there a crown stamp?

**hunter67** · 11-05-2007 12:35 AM

Looks to me to be east german, but not VoPo. Is the safety electropencilled?

**hunter67** · 11-05-2007 10:38 AM

yes the saftey lever is the only part electropenciled.

Then it's an early pattern East-German rework done on contract at BRNO in Czechoslovakia icon

for the E.G. government.

I was wondering what the value would be here in canada , it all matching and the bore is bright ?

**Sigismund** · 11-05-2007 09:22 PM

450-500 depending on the buyer. Id personally not give much more than 400, unless it was a nice byf44 with stamped barrel bands and floorplate, with 315 WaA stampings
