    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.

    Bill is right, only four or five known on the side marked revision 2 hammer - really quite rare to find. Anyone notice the rebuilt studs on the trigger guard in that photo ?

    rebuild trigger housing and trigger guard

    The trigger housing had the pad reduced and was handstamped -1SA behind the drawing number (photo) The lugs on the trigger guard were resized. Most trigger housings that had the pad reduced did not receive any additional markings
