    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.

    The X most likely makes it a AOB round bolt for IBM. It simply designates that the bolt doesn't have the most recent design changes milled into it. I have seen where X means something totally different on some earlier flat bolts, but I am not touching that one.

    Hi Mikey....

    I have notes here from a Add listed Jan 2012.
    Import marked Inland Hand Stamped (I).
    Bolt was a Round With the same style/size/location of the X stamps often found on the AOB bolts, Aprox: 1/2" behind the Right lug.
    But this Round Bolt was marked EM-Q.
    Serial Number Was.... 6,695,xxx

    I've seen Inland bolts with the X on the outer Right Lug,
    Like this one marked OI 2 on auction:
    WWII M1 Carbine USGI Inland Round Bolt Stripped N O s Unissued | eBay

    IIRC CC Newsletter 206 (?) had info about the AOB X marked Round Bolts.

    Cheers Buddy,
