    1905 E1 bayonet markings

    I have an Oneida LTD beak point 10" with AFH (American Fork and Hoe) stamped on the spine between the bakelite grips. It appears full tang. Did AFH get Oneida's stock after the contract was lost in 43? Any insight please.

    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.

    Those marks just indicate who did the cut down conversion.

    So AFH cut down a 16" Oneida 1905? Neat. Thank you much.

    Yes, I have a 1905 made in 1920 cut down by AFH in 43 or so. Quite common.
