    Remington M1903 Milled Trigger Guard Assembly

    I have seen online that Remington marked the trigger guard, floorplate, and magazine spring with an R. Did they also mark the milled follower and magazine catch with an R as well in the M1903? Thanks.

    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.

    Yes, the follower was marked. If by magazine catch, you mean floorplate catch, I don't think so, but I could be wrong.

    Heres one with a nice blued finish. Serifed "R" stamp on back.

    A few early floorplate catches were marked with an "R". Most were not.
