    Type 1 handguard differences

    Ive noted my UEF type 1 handguard has a rounder profile cut, than my WRA, and 3 Inlands.
    Is it Marlins cut?
    M-U marking

    M-U profile of clearance cut

    All my others look like this..WRA, 3 Inlands, all are type 1

    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.

    Garandy,
    I just happen to have a box of HG's in front of me right now.

    I see that same round cut used on,
    SA 4 rivet Type III, P-U type II, OI Type III, L-J Type III and have 1 Q-rmc Type II with rounded cut.... but other Q-RMC and RMC with the angled cut.

    FWIW,
    Charlie-painter777

    M-U Type II...

    Sorry Garandy,
    I just now noticed you were comparing Type I's.
