QHMC Trigger Housing

**G26ster** · 05-25-2011 04:34 PM

I have a 4.71m QHMC. It is a "put together." I have a type III trigger housing in it. Riesch says at SN 4.5m type III and Type IV saw mixed use. Ruth says type IVs came into use in Spring '44. Mine is a March/April '44 production date. Does anyone know the latest SN for QHMC that had a confirmed type III trigger housing? 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. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

I'm pretty sure you need a type 4, but you might be in the transition period.

That was my thought. I'd hate to get rid of a correct part when i don't need to

What is the marking on your housing?

Marked Q-NL. I just got some info that said the in the March 2006 Carbine Club newsletter (issue #334) some late Qualitys in the 4.79M - 4.80 range were still using the T3 TH. I believe my 4.71m is in that transition period, so perhaps I'm good to go. Larry

Yes but should'nt it be marked NL-Q instead of QN-L?

According to Riesch, Type IIIs were marked both ways NL-Q and Q-NL). Ruth only lists NL-Q type III. Early type II housing were marked Q-NL also according to Riesch and Ruth. Ruth is a little more precise in his dates, so perhaps I do not have the correct type III.

I think that you need a NL-Q and they are tough to find!

Probably easier to find a Type IV Q-TX.
