    Neat little Tool

    Has anyone tried one of these? just came across it. Looks really neat. That little pin can really be a bugger, this make it look a little easier.

    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 happen to see the same items, but think they were on GB.
    Could be very handy as I've ruined a couple post war front sights by bending the ears. They don't like to be bent back !

    Another tool you've never even thought of until you've done the uh-oh.

    Thanks for the heads-up.

    Sight Tool

    Yep, looks pretty neat. I ordered one yesterday for both sights. I feel sure that it will work real good. You can look at the fixture and just know that it will be solid when you start hammering on a solid surface, and that's what it takes to get that pin moving.

    I had the pleasure today to buy one of these sight blocks in person from Steve. I haven't used it yet, but have no doubt that this will do a great job. Real nicely milled.

    Steve is a very knowledgeable guy who took the time to show me a number of things I didn't know about my own meager collection. Looking forward to talking with him again.

    Still waiting on mine. How does it fit?, and did you get the one that fits both the milled and the cast?
