    OOPS! Now What???

    Had a little mishap with the elevation pinion ring on my M1Aicon. Can this part be found or do I need the whole pinion assembly? It came apart easily once the "c" clip was removed. Would a Garand elevation screw work? I have seen some that only go up to 8. What does the "M" stand for? All help is greatly appreciated.

    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.

    M14icon and M1 rifle are mostly interchangeable. The rear sights are an example. I don't know what the marking is but an M1 part will do until you get the correct one.

    Why don't you just call up Springfield Armory and tell them it broke, the M1Aicon has a lifetime warranty so they should send you a free replacement.

    BTW, the M means that the elevation adjustments are in meters instead of yards.

    V Hunter,
    Just got off the phone with SA. They are going to send a replacement for no charge. That's good customer service. Thanks for the heads up.
