    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 ...

    Yup, all GI carbines are C&R. It has to be the complete gun, barreled receivers are not eligible.

    Commercial carbines over 50 years old are C&R

    If you need, you might check Jim Mock's site m1carbinesinc.com for info which might help narrow when a particular serial number might have been manufactured. I don't think you will find any published "list" like you are seeking. Life would be just too easy.

    You have to prove that a commercail carbine was made 50 years ago. There are a few that are but most are still to young to make the 50 year mark. But as said any USGI made carbines are C&R. The only other ones are the Howa made carbines for Thailand.
