    What do you guys think about this SG?

    Guys,

    Other than the obvious relic rear sight, what else is wrong or right? 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.

    Bubba,

    Check out the picture of the groove at the rear in the first post; Type 1? It is much wider and deeper than my T2 IO and T3 HI. It measures right at .700 at the rear.

    The crossed cannon cartouche looks like it was recently stamped. The rear sight is either cast or badly corroded and not original to the Carbine.

    Yes, Vern, Looks like it is a early HG. I got some studying to do on dotts or no dotts on early and late RSG HGs.
    Thanks for pointing it out to me.
