    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 ...

    Bigduke6, I had not seen that thread, thank you. I meant to post this reply on this thread but ended up posting it also on the original thread. Old age catching up with me as was 1256 unread posts - yes I have been away for awhile. The bayonet pictured is more like the Vickers pre-production model (no gripscale grooves and no clearance hole) than my Enfield of similar dates. Unfortunately don't have any production figures. Probably 10 years ago now (how time flies) a P1913 with hook sold at auction here in Australiaicon for $7,000 but was in almost mint condition with two bayonet collectors basically fighting over it.
