    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 ...

    Mr cgroc09, I would think all three digit Winchesters that are around - are restorations - unless you know of any originals ?

    Known serials 209, 312, 319, 432, 434, 437, 569, 691, 790 & 931. If you know of any others, please add them to this list

    Thanks RCS

    I had WRA 185 besides 434 and Tony G has 435 & 436.

    790 sold at my home for $15,000 last month after I verified it. It looked pretty nice and had one of the best RS markings I have seen besides one you have. There are a few more I forget at the moment but I think the total is around 40 found so far for the Educational's. Rick Bicon

    I'd love to have one of those under my nose for a few minutes. It would truly be "educational" in more ways than one.

    I realize you are discussing "3 digit" numbers in this thread but how about 001. There is an article in Vol. 10 Number 1 ( Winter 1995) edition of the GCAicon Journal (Newsletter) about how number 001 ended up in the collection of Larry Kaufman.
