    Guts,
    I wonder if there's a chance he had this slide set up for shooting.
    Possible there might be another (correct) slide there at the house for that gun.
    Sure worth asking if he has extra parts.

    Good luck,
    Charlie-painterr777

    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.

    Excellent observation P-777 that would be cool if the original slide was available. Also thanks to SG for your info. Reminds me why I sent off for that 1911 Clawson book and picture CD. Knowledge is power, or something like that.

    I just looked at the picture of the left side again and this is like a tool to learn or see the comparison of serif and non serif stamping. I know the serif P on the Garands but didn't even observe the difference here until you pointed it out, thanks.
