    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.

    I forgot where I saw the information at, maybe someone here knows... But there is a difference with the buttplates. One manufacturer has sharper more defined detail in all the little lines. the other manufacturer is not as defined. Thats how I remeber the article, but I am not sure which one was what, sorry, but mant of them are not marked as I recall.
