    Thumbs up Smith-Corona 1903A3

    I have a Smith-Corona 1903A3 ser#36381xx,It has a I believe Redfield adjustable target rear sight with gradations from 0-600 on the right side and a set screw on the top right side and another horizontally on the left side.There is also a knurled screw on thefront right side.It also has a peep sight.
    The front sight is a cylinder shaped hooded sight.The rear of the sight is knurled.Can anyone relay to me how to use this sight.Also what brand do you think it is and are there any resources I can read to learn how to use it.

    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.

    Smith Corona bolt sleeve marks

    I have a Smth Corona 1903A3 with what appears to be a correct shaped bolt sleeve.There is a N stamped on top. I do not see this in the subcontracor marks. Any ideas on who made it, is it correct. Do I get rid of it for a BP (Brown Corp)? I also need some SC bands and a trigger guard.
