    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.

    Do you have any pics of the muzzle end or with the hand guards removed? I ask because I have two eddy barrels that I would like to compare to it.. The first is dated 10-17 and I believe was refinished/parked post WWI.The finish is not quite polished except where the front sight base was and looks blackish/dark brown. The other is dated 11-18. Finish is about the same but the color resembles more of a brown color/plum brown.

    not really interested in taking the rifle apart again, less buggering on the screws the better, ill be happy to take another pic of the barrel at the front sight area.
