    I got barrel stubs and front sights from numrich-barrels are 1950's SA vintage NOS wacked into two pieces, sights are repros, angle iron was 3/4 x 1 for proper angle-tapped the barrel with 5/16 standard-when doing the bayonet need long lengths

    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.

    Why did you turn the carbines out in the cabinet? Where you could quickly check for Parkerized bolts? haha Do they not all have "collector" tags. If not, I know where you can pick-up a few. There is a guy on GB selling them or I have a few extra.
    Better pictures than the first ones you sent me. I broke down and bought that junk Inland with the blonde wood. You just enjoy spending my money.

    I have been selling parts. Most of the loose early parts are gone. I just looked at a 1.6 Quality that I had started to restore ten years ago. Like most, never finished because of all the repro rear sights. After I bought twenty or thirty of them, I figured I was being ripped off and that did not know what I was doing. I never said I was fast. Just steady. So for me, it is five million and up mostly. I have a soft touch for those type 2 bands. They were used only for a short time and work better than a type 1 band holding the barrel. There are repro type 2 bands but they are of poor quality and easy to spot.
    Anyway, this 1.6 had a complete early TH, with only dogleg strikes, even with a type 2 LT-Q dogleg, 22, etc. etc. I guess I am going to part the TH out, Put the carbine back as a rebuild. You know how rare it is to find any TH with only dogleg strikes.

    Roger, e mail me about the 1.6. Have a 1.5 here, might be able to help you with a few correct parts but those folks in Bavaria have had a crack at it so I am not sure what is good and what is not. Cheers, Mike. N.Z.
