NM Lyman 48??

**xs hedspace** · 09-22-2011 08:10 AM

Got a strange Lyman 48 sight at a yard sale. No Lyman markings, and my Old Gunsights book says that some NM Springfields had a 48 with no Lyman logos, and mismatched assembly #s under the slide. Fits this description, looks like a Springfield base. Some bluing wear. Anybody need one of these?? Will post photos if interested.

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.

Slight edit to the post--it does have a Lyman logo on the slide, and tiny Lyman, pat. etc on the top of the base, but no 48 stamping. Looks like an early type 2, and it has a groove in the top of the base where the stripper clip cutout is on the receiver. Senior moment...

Does the slide go to 125 or 150?
