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.

It looks like a revision 2 follower (unmarked) and the slide has been replaced with the later type. But on second thought it looks like a regular Winchester follower and slide with the 90 egree front face

Thank you for the reply, the follower came of a SA early 1941 (original barel) Garand icon

that went through a 1960's Tooele Rebuild. Strange thing is it still had some early correct SAparts parts . The follower arm was WRA single bevel stamped 6.
Heres a few more pics if it helps, if you need any more would be glad to post
Thanks again
