    M1903A3 "winter" trigger guards

    Saw some 1903A3 winter trigger guards (so you can use with a glove) on JoeSalter.com item number 16755. Never seen anything like this before ?

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Sure look like something for the 98k rifles don't they? Nope, I've never seen them either.

    Yep, for Mauser. Not long ago someone bought a "Smith Corona" TG off GB, I think. It turned out to be one of the Mauser winter TG's.

    I emailed Joe. He said, "Yep, they might be Czeck?"

    I'm confused, on the website they are described as 03a3 winter triggergards but in an e mail the seller says they may be Czechicon. Czech what? Mauser or Springfield? I see they've sold now. Something else I noticed, item #14845 is a KETSTONE 1903 NM C stock w/03a3 ring cut. Did'nt know Keystone made NM stocks.
